Alaynna Perrine is a Certified Peer Recovery Specialist with 3 years of experience supporting individuals on their recovery journeys. Drawing from her own lived experience, Alaynna is passionate about reducing stigma, promoting hope, and empowering people to build meaningful lives in recovery. Alaynna currently serves as a Peer at OORP at Center for Family Services. Through her own recovery journey, Alaynna has over five years in recovery and has developed a strong commitment to helping others find hope and healing.

This peer-led session explores how Peer Recovery Specialists are transforming crisis response into long-term recovery pathways through real-time engagement, data-informed practices, and culturally responsive care. Grounded in lived experience, the workshop centers on the success of a county-wide, hospital-based peer program that positions peers as the bridge between immediate intervention and sustained support.


Presenters will share how peers are leading efforts in:

  • 24/7 engagement through dispatch and emergency department response

  • Using data to inform outreach, equity, and program improvement

  • Reaching underrepresented and high-risk populations with intention

  • Implementing trauma-informed supervision and workforce development

Designed for Peer Recovery Specialists and program leaders, this session offers real-world strategies, core peer competencies, and actionable tools for elevating peer roles in systems of care. Attendees will walk away with a renewed vision of how peer voice can drive innovation, connection, and healing across the recovery continuum.
