Reentry Peer Specialists are equipped with unique knowledge and expertise from lived experience to provide critical supports to individuals reentering the community after incarceration. Recent peer-led developments in the field provide more opportunities to support reentry peer specialists and address the critical needs that people face upon reentry. This webinar will provide information about supporting reentry peer specialists and reentry peer support programs through providing certification, training, and the knowledge and resources to effectively support people in transition from incarceration to the community. Three presenters will discuss the opportunities that come with training and education, along with the policy and practice challenges of supporting people in recovery who are transitioning back to the community, including peer support specialists, themselves.
