What are the responsibilities and job description for the Residential Peer Support Member I position at AmeriCorps?
Stepping Stone Ministries (SSM) Medical Respite Center is a new non-profit founded to provide transitional care for people experiencing homelessness who are too ill to return to the streets or shelters but no longer require, or qualify for, acute care or other healthcare destinations in the Bismarck/Mandan area. Our goals are to provide a safe and healing environment during recovery and, in collaboration with our community partners, to foster community connections that will promote access to stable housing, access to recovery services, access to healthcare, increase independence, and help to end the cycle of homelessness. We know that unhoused individuals experience higher levels of many chronic health conditions, including mental health and substance abuse challenges. These conditions are exacerbated by lack of shelter, sleep, access to food and access to health care. We believe that by providing a safe environment in which to recover from illness, while providing assistance to access other essential services, we will be building capacity for the unmet needs of an underserved, vulnerable population, and improve the overall health of the community we serve.
