The REAL program collaborates with providers, law enforcement, and community members to offer rapid access to a trained Peer Specialist locally and within the Region 5 Systems area. Peer Specialists strive to build connections with individuals who may be experiencing a variety of hardship related to mental health, substance use, trauma, previous incarceration and/or other life altering experiences.
We provide mobile one on one peer support, assistance navigating community resources and can explore the many different ways individuals find healing and wellness together. Our hope is by building connections and community, the need to access higher levels of care decreases due to having the support they need in the community.
Referrals can be sent to REAL@mha-ne.org, self referrals are welcome.
