Flagler OARS & Discover & Recover St. Johns County Host Annual Peer Workshop

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation—it grows through connection, support, and shared experience. That’s why Flagler Open Arms Recovery Services (Flagler OARS) and Discover & Recover St. Johns County are looking forward to hosting their Annual Peer Workshop on Thursday, June 25, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in St. Augustine.

This peer-centered workshop is designed by and for people in recovery, bringing together peers for a full day of learning, encouragement, and relationship-building. Attendees can expect peer-led workshops and presentations, meaningful conversations, and networking opportunities that strengthen recovery journeys and reinforce a sense of community.

Brock Birtolo, Executive Director, says the Annual Peer Workshop is all about celebrating recovery and creating a welcoming space where peers can connect, learn, and strengthen their journey.

Participants will also receive continuing education (CEU) credits, along with complimentary food and beverages throughout the day.

Registration is open to individuals seeking support, education, and community connection. If you’d like to attend, please register here:  https://bit.ly/4ePIxHB .
