TRI has hired and trained peer support specialists to run our Welcome Back Center - helping parolees with the transition back to your community.

Peer support specialists are uniquely qualified having the lived experience of being incarcerated and going through parole. Our members find eye-to-eye support in living a renewed life within the community. 

The peer support specialists are tasked with 

  • conducting pre-screens, 

  • supporting care manager meetings with resources and goal planning, 

  • meeting individually with members in the office or in the community who need recovery or general support, 

  • co-facilitating therapeutic groups, and 

  • increasing engagement by parole tabling and outreach.
