Peer support is often the only substance use recovery resource available in rural areas, like many of the small towns in Arkansas.
To bring awareness to this resource, decrease stigma, and provide insight to peer support services, AROUTE has partnered with several Arkansas based Peer Support Specialists in a unique spotlight series set to release over the next several weeks.
We start with sharing Cassie’s story and how she is giving back to her community through Peer Services. You may contact Cassie through the information given during the video and see what peer services your county at https://www.arpeers.org/.
