The peer program is for any person who is suffering with any type of mental illness. Persons who want to attend the Peer Support Center do not have to be consumers of MHMR services. All citizens from Limestone and Freestone Counties are invited to attend the peer program free of charge. The only requirements for attending the peer center are that a person must be at least 18 years of age and have been diagnosed with a mental illness.
