Peer support for recovery after an emergency visit
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a peer recovery worker can help adults who came to the emergency room for a drug- or alcohol-related problem stay engaged in recovery. If you join, you'll get extra support from someone who has been through similar experiences.
