Meet our Peer Mentor

Jennifer Celaya at the 黑瓜吃料网 Student Wellness Center

Hello, my name is Jennifer Celaya (pronouns: she/her). I am currently studying Social Work at San Jos茅 State University, and I serve as a Collegiate Recovery Peer Mentor. My journey includes lived experience with recovery, which has shaped both my personal growth and my commitment to supporting others. I believe that sharing even small parts of our stories helps reduce stigma and reminds people they are not alone. In my view, recovery extends beyond personal effort; it is most effective when supported within a community context. Peers play a vital role by offering understanding, encouragement, and accountability. When we come together, we create a safe space where healing, resilience, and hope can flourish.
