Job DescriptionJob DescriptionPeer Recovery Specialist
Overview: 
Are you a Peer Recovery Specialist passionate about making a real difference in the lives of those battling Substance Use Disorder? Imagine a role where your personal journey through addiction becomes a beacon of hope and guidance for others. As a PRS with our organization, you're not confined to the walls of a treatment center. Instead, you have the unique opportunity to meet clients right where they need you most – in their communities, homes, and everyday lives.
Your role goes beyond traditional support; it's about providing tailored mentorship, helping individuals navigate complex services, and advocating for their needs. Every day, you'll see the tangible impact of your work – sometimes, you might even save a life. Your past experiences, including any criminal background, are not barriers here. In fact, we believe these experiences enrich your ability to connect with and assist others.

Join us, and turn your journey into a powerful tool for change. Together, let's offer hope and practical support to those striving for recovery, while you continue to strengthen your own path. This isn't just a job; it's a chance to transform lives – including your own.

As a 1099 CPRS at Kyros, you have the freedom of creating your own availability, while maintaining a part or full time caseload. Depending on your location and availability, Kyros provides placement at a partnering program in Minnesota.
