The Consejo on Wheels (COW) program is a mobile clinic that brings behavioral health services directly to underserved communities in King County's remote and rural areas. By addressing barriers such as financial limitations, transportation challenges, language differences, and mental health stigma, the COW program ensures access to care for all. Staffed by licensed professionals, the clinic offers a range of services, including crisis intervention, assistance with enrollment, and personalized care coordination. This community-focused initiative ensures that residents across King County have access to culturally and linguistically relevant, responsive care, wherever they are.

When peers support peers through recovery, the impact is lasting. At Peer Washington, people use their lived experience of addiction, mental health, and HIV/AIDS to help individuals build their own paths to recovery from chronic illness, addiction, and more. Behavioral health issues disproportionately impact people of color, the LGBTQIA+ community, and individuals in poverty. In response, Peer Seattle and Peer Kent locations work to ensure ALL adults have access to services such as 1:1 peer coaching. In this free, 26-week program, trained coaches walk alongside recoverees who are early in their recovery journeys, providing active support while serving as role models of long-term recovery.  Learn more about Peer Washington, including their locations and recovery services, here.
