One of the primary purposes of the Peer Recovery Center of Excellence is to respond to training & TA requests regarding topics surrounding peer recovery support. Our focus areas are:
Most requests fall into those five areas, but we can accept requests outside of that if they pertain to peer support.
In order to respond to these requests, we maintain a pool of experts we can call on to assist in training. Consultations will be utilized based on needs and area, or expertise as they arise.
If you are interested, please complete our Subject Matter Expert Application. Please contact Shannon Roberts at slroberts@umkc.edu with additional questions. We look forward to possibly working together to serve our peer community.
After submitting the application, a member of the CoE may contact you to follow up or request additional information if needed. Otherwise, you will be notified of your status within one month. If you are accepted as a consultant, you will be sent onboarding information (more about the PR CoE, instructions on how to invoice, etc). Your information will be kept on file and should a training request arise that fits your area of expertise, you will be contacted by one of our team members, who will introduce you to the project and the requester. From there, you and our team member will design a scope and plan to carry out the project.
