The Peer Support Specialist provides peer-based recovery-oriented services to individuals living with mental health and/or substance use challenges in the OASAS Transitional Safety Units Program. OASAS Transitional Safety Units (TSUs) provide short-term supportive housing for individuals with substance use disorders (SUD) who are experiencing homelessness and are not yet able to access permanent housing. These units primarily serve individuals with SUD who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and are either exiting a residential treatment program or reentering the community from the criminal justice system. The peer specialist draws on their own lived experience to engage individuals in recovery, promote wellness, and support participants as they navigate treatment, housing, and other community-based services. The role may support multiple programs including residential, transitional, and supportive housing.
