Group Information

OCARTA’s Peer Support Group is a welcoming, recovery-focused community for individuals seeking support in their mental health, substance use recovery, or overall wellness journey. Guided by Certified Peer Recovery Support Specialists (C-PRSS) with lived experience, this group provides a safe and supportive environment where participants can connect with others who understand the challenges and successes of recovery.
