Peer Support Agencies
Information and resources regarding Peer Support Agencies, which are private not-for-profit agencies located throughout New Hampshire that have contracted with the NH Department of Health and Human Services to provide mental health support.
Peer support services are provided by and for people with a mental illness and are designed to assist people with their recovery. Peer support consists of supportive interactions based on shared experience among people and are intended to assist people to understand their potential to achieve their personal goals. Interactions are based on trust, respect, and mutual support. Peer support agencies accomplish this by providing choice, using non-medical approaches to help, sharing decision making, encouraging informed decision making about all aspects of people's lives, challenging perceived self-limitations, etc.
Services include, but are not limited to: face-to-face and telephone peer support; outreach; daily programming including activities that promote self-advocacy; support groups; wellness training; monthly educational and community events; after hours warm line; crisis respite and step-up/step-down (24 hours, short-term, non-medical crisis program).
