Peer Policy

4recovery connects adults 18 and older with non-clinical peer support.

Our peers are here to listen, support, and help people take the next step. They are not therapists, doctors, or emergency responders.

Peer support is grounded in lived experience, steady presence, and practical care. It is meant to help people feel less alone and more supported in moments that matter.

What peers can do

  • Offer non-clinical support
  • Listen without judgment
  • Help someone talk through what is happening
  • Help guide someone toward the next right step
  • Support connection to additional care when needed

What peers cannot do

  • Provide therapy
  • Diagnose conditions
  • Prescribe treatment
  • Respond to emergencies
  • Replace medical, psychiatric, or legal care

Privacy and safety

We take privacy seriously. At the same time, confidentiality may be limited when there is a credible safety risk or when disclosure is required by law.

Important

If you are in immediate danger or need urgent help, call 911 or 988 right away.
