FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (Q&A)
Clear Answers for Our Community & Partners
No corporate jargon. No systemic runaround. Just straight truth about how our movement operates.
-
We are a professional, non-clinical peer recovery mentoring and community fellowship network. We are operated 100% by individuals with true lived experience who have successfully navigated substance use disorders, mental health conditions, carceral transitions, trauma, and housing displacement. We focus strictly on building your internal resilience, emotional coping tools, and personal accountability so you can step forward as a living leader.
-
No. We are proudly non-clinical. We do not provide therapy, medical diagnoses, psychiatric evaluations, or medication management. Instead, we deliver authentic peer-to-peer mentoring, high-impact support groups, real-world grounding exercises, and behavioral workshops. We are the emotional and spiritual forge that works hand-in-hand with your existing lifestyle to ensure a whole-person rebirth.
-
Absolutely not. You do not need anyone’s permission to start your journey with us. While we accept formal warm-handoffs from accountability courts and probation officers, self-referrals are always welcome. Our core individual mentoring, Peer Accountability Circles, and specialized youth tracks are 100% free to our community. Financial hardship or lack of insurance will never bar you from our rooms.
-
We do not do shallow support. Our groups are divided into three distinct, intensive tracks: our Peer Disruption Track (which aggressively dismantles criminogenic risk factors and street mentalities from a peer scope), our Core Peer Accountability Circles (which use strict our/we language to establish absolute equality and track your personal goals), and our Holistic Wellness Support Groups (where we actively practice real-world nervous system grounding exercises like focused breathwork).
-
We construct our transformation frameworks strictly around the SAMHSA 8 Interconnected Dimensions of Wellness and the 4 Major Domains of Recovery. Every single one of our Peer Guides is fully trained in national peer core competencies, ensuring our community receives the highest national standard of professional, trauma-informed peer navigation.

Born Again Living Leaders LLC focuses exclusively on your internal, emotional, and behavioral growth. However, we recognize that you cannot focus on internal healing if you are fighting for basic survival. The exact moment a structural or environmental barrier is identified on your Life Action Plan, we mobilize a broad network of community resource organizations to help you clear it. Through our strategic partnership with our sister non-profit hub, BE (BALL EFFECT), alongside our active collaborations with external housing coalitions, county health clinics, second-chance employer networks, and local grassroots initiatives, we ensure you are immediately connected to the right team to handle the physical logistics of your recovery.
-
Yes. Under our Institutional Contracting tracks, we provide accountability courts, probation and parole offices, and clinical discharge planners with structured, insurance-compliant progress logs that verify real-world participant attendance and behavioral milestone tracking.
