About JPR:

Jordan Peer Recovery (JPR), a division of Dr. Masica Jordan, LLC (Dr. MJ, LLC) is a peer-led educational and training institution where highly skilled trainers encourage each person to find their own holistic path to progress.  JPR uses leading edge, collaborative adult learning models to help systems and organizations provide culturally responsive peer recovery training and create environments for wellness and recovery.

Cultural Responsiveness is at the core of our training program. Our training program offers a unique perspective on cultural responsiveness. We believe in the importance of being accommodating to a growing diverse population. Building a culturally aware peer recovery workforce with the ability to interact effectively with people of different cultures is deeply important to us. This belief is engrained in our staff and training programs. We believe it, we teach it, we live it.

This course will cover peer recovery core competencies, such as commitment to personal recovery, relationship building, peer support interactions, ethics & boundaries, trauma-informed care and cultural responsiveness.  Participants will discuss the multiple pathways to recovery, person-centered language and self-care/wellness through the use of various instruction techniques geared towards all styles of learning.
