Community Access is excited to announce ThriveAtWork, a free training program that will support hundreds of peers (people who have used mental health services) to leverage their lived experience into a career helping others. Modeled after our nationally-recognized Howie the Harp peer training program,  ThriveAtWork will offer six new training sessions a year that support peer certification and career development.


ThriveAtWork offers training for New Yorkers who have:

  • Used mental health services or supports and are interested in a meaningful career using their experiences to help others, and/or
  • Previously graduated from a peer training program, or have worked/ volunteered as a peer, and want to become a NYS Certified Peer Specialist

Join us in this exciting new training opportunity, and transform your mental health experience into a rewarding career!

This training is a key component of ThriveNYC, a comprehensive mental health plan for New York City launched by the Mayor’s Office,

supported by the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
