Statewide Peer Network - The New York Peer Network for Recovery and Resiliency (NYPNRR) is a collaboration between adult peers in mental health recovery, peers in addiction recovery, and families of youth with behavioral health challenges. This partnership seeks to strengthen the voices of mental health consumers, family members and youth, and individuals in recovery at the state and local level to increase access to quality behavioral health services and recovery supports. Partners include the SAMHSA funded statewide networks: Families Together in New York State; the Medication-Assisted Recovery Services Project; and the Mental Health Empowerment Project. These networks have developed an infrastructure to engage and support their communities and partner with stakeholders from a person-centered, strength-based, peer-driven, and recovery-orientated perspective. The NYPNRR has expanded the collaboration to develop a strategic plan and conduct ongoing needs assessments, share resources, conduct cross- system training, and continues to collaborate on behavioral health issues of concern. The NYPNRR continues to participate in state and local planning to improve behavioral health outcomes for persons in recovery from serious mental health challenges, substance use disorders, and children and youth with significant behavioral health challenges and their families.
