Recovery Navigator Peer Support for Those Justice - Involved

This is hosted by WSCJTC Substance Use Disorders (SUD) Program and PEER WA.

This 90-minute presentation conducted by Peer WA will include a panel of subject matter experts who have
been engaged in supporting justice-involved individuals. The Recovery Navigator Program (RNP)
is a statewide effort that connects people with substance use disorders (SUD) and behavioral
health challenges to community resources.

The goal is to reduce barriers to services, increase engagement, and decrease involvement in the
criminal justice system. Students will learn how the partnership between jail staff and peer supporters
is saving lives and money through the Recovery Navigator Program in Washington State. The presentation will include services provided, including re-entry services, challenges and how to mitigate them and success stories. Peer
Washington cultivates powerful, healthy lives by providing peer emotional support and development
services to disparately impacted communities throughout Washington state.

Open to Law Enforcement and Corrections Staff
