Stepping Stone offers Peer Support, respite program, and a “warm line”. Stepping Stone Peer Support and Crisis Respite Center, located in Claremont, New Hampshire, has developed and implemented a model of crisis respite that is both consumer-run and congruent with the center’s philosophy of peer support and self-help. Our hope is to create an opportunity for people to learn from, and be supported in making the transition from crisis to wellness. We believe that within the context of a mutually- responsible relationship, and with the help of consumer staff’s experiential knowledge and training that those who sincerely wish to overcome their difficulties can greatly reduce the use of more restrictive hospital settings, including involuntary admissions.
