FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
National Leader Holding the Hope Announces First-of-its-Kind Peer Support Supervision Training Toolkit to Combat Workforce Burnout
VANCOUVER, WA — June 10, 2026 — The National Peer Support Training Center (NPSTC), a premier program of Holding the Hope, today announced the official commercial deployment of the Supervision Support Toolkit. This innovative, 12-module variable parallel curriculum is specifically engineered to address the systemic challenges of “peer support drift,” decrease staff burnout, and improve behavioral health workforce retention across public and private healthcare landscapes.
Conventional administrative models frequently utilize a top-down, evaluative, clinical approach that causes severe staff exhaustion. Consequently, the Supervision Support Toolkit provides a revolutionary structural pivot by treating supervisors and certified peer specialist colleagues as collaborative operational partners. Built entirely upon SAMHSA’s Guiding Principles of Recovery and over two decades of expert lived experience, this dual-workbook architecture embeds a protective Boundary Grounding Guideline and a proactive Peer Drift Alert directly into every single structured supervision meeting.
“Let’s call it what it is—peer support is an absolute superpower, but without a clear, respectful home base at the top, our best people get chewed up by the system and the clinical environments they work in,” said Mary Jadwisiak, CEO and national spokesperson for recovery. “We designed these parallel companion guidebooks so that every single time, the supervisor and the peer are walking into their session with the exact same focus. We aren’t managing peers through a rigid clinical lens; as a result, we are fiercely protecting the raw, authentic power of peer support while drastically increasing staff competency.”
Moreover, the toolkit is immediately available as a flexible, multi-tiered commercial offering designed to fit the budget of any community behavioral health agency, residential rehab, or state-wide care initiative:
- Tier 1: Standalone Core Package — $97 Includes the complete digital download of the parallel Supervisor Guidebook and Peer Specialist Companion Guidebook set, plus immediate access to the 5-Hour Supervising Peers Live Workshop.
- Tier 2: Physical Print & Digital Hybrid — $127 Includes the complete digital download package, high-quality physical hardcopies of the guidebook set delivered directly to your organization, and registration for the 5-Hour Supervising Peers Live Workshop.
- Optional Enterprise Add-On: Video Masterclass Suite — +$197 Provides unlimited, organization-wide staff access to 13 on-demand, one-hour video modules focusing on essential skills for peer supporters. One single purchase covers every supervisor and peer specialist in your entire terminal with unlimited views. Available for integration with every tier.
Specifically, organizations looking to outfit entire incoming cohorts or large regional teams can access specialized guidebooks and set bulk rates upon direct inquiry.
