The Department of Health has been working with our partners, stakeholders, and interested parties over the last year to develop the draft rule language for the new Certified Peer Specialist credential. This notice is also being sent to the Agency Affiliated Counselors in order to reach those who are practicing as a Peer Counselor.
The initial draft of this rule language is below, along with a draft version of the Ethical guidelines for the profession. The draft language is based on the statutory requirements in RCW 18.420 and on feedback from the workshops held in Fall of 2023 and Spring of 2024.
These rules are not complete yet, we are hosting several more workshops in July and August of 2024 to discuss these rules and any potential changes that may be needed.
- Monday, July 15, 2024, from 2:30 – 4:30
- Wednesday, July 17, 2024, from 2:00 – 4:00
- Tuesday, July 23, 2024, from 2:00 – 4:00
- Friday, July 26, 2024, from 10:00 – 12:00
- Tuesday, July 30, 2024, from 5:00 – 7:00
- Tuesday, August 13, 2024, from 10:00 – 12:00
- Friday, August 16, 2024, from 10:00 – 12:00
- Monday, August 26, 2024, from 2:30 – 4:30
