Congratulations to Rachel Hayden for graduating from Wisconsin’s Emerging Leaders program! For her capstone project, she worked with another peer specialist to create the Friends of Friends program.

Their trained peer supporters—people with lived experience—meet folks where they are to offer connection, harm-reduction supplies and education, peer support, resource navigation, and links to community services. To learn more, see the attached flyer, or call 715-619-8628 to see if you are eligible for this free, confidential support program.
