An important part of CB State of Mind’s work is connecting people to peer support groups for mental health support, substance abuse recovery, grief, traumatic brain injuries(TBI), and Spanish-language programs in Gunnison County. Peer support groups are unique in that they are non-professional and are led by people with lived experience who have personally walked through the challenges of what they are in recovery from. Peers can often provide support and help in a way that mental health professionals cannot. By providing their experience, strength and hope, peers walk hand-in hand with those seeking recovery or support.
