Communities Voices
at a Glance
We are peers. We have been through rough moments in our lives. We recognize the uncertainty taking place in our country. California is undergoing a significant transformation of its mental health system through the expansion of the peer support workforce and the Behavioral Health Transformation. Communities Voices is evolving to play a crucial role in this transformation by providing support, training, and resources for peer support specialists, peer-run organizations, and employers. We are committed to advocating for policies that recognize and support the vital role of peer support specialists. Recognizing the importance of evidence-based practices, we are establishing a research and data workgroup to gather information on the impact of peer support, conduct focus groups and surveys to identify the evolving needs of the peer community, and directly inform our programs and services. We are committed to empowering peers to navigate these systemic changes, prioritize their wellness, and thrive in their evolving roles within the new system.
