Please note, you must be at least 16 years old to be considered for this training. The ages we serve are 14 to 24 years old, and we require our peer volunteers to be of a similar age (maximum age limit is 26).
The 7-week training takes place fully online with virtual meetings twice a week from 5pm to 6pm on Monday & Tuesday or Wednesday evenings (you will choose/be placed in the Tuesday or Wednesday session, only one of these is required), and also requires the completion of 13 Academy of Peer Services learning modules. Participation in and/or completion of the Peer24 Training does not make qualify for a Certified Peer Recovery Specialist (CPRS) certification.
