Mercy Health Foundation Mahoning Valley received $35,400 from the Trumbull Memorial foundation to establish a peer recovery program at St. Joseph Warren Hospital.
The program, modeled after the Anchor Recovery in Providence, R.I., links individuals who arrive at the emergency department due to a drug overdose with specially trained and certified peer recovery coaches when they are most open to receiving support and services, Chacon said.
