El Paso's Answer to the Opioid Crisis

welcome TO:

Project Punto de Partida

We are a group of Recovery Allies taking action to help improve the quality of life for those facing substance use disorders.

As Certified Recovery Support Peer Specialist (RSPS), we take pride in our ability to assist those in need by providing peer recovery support services and guidance into the many pathways of recovery that are available today.

As a non-profit organization, Punto de Partida offers grant-funded services at no cost to individuals, tailored to meet the needs of those we serve.

We offer Advocacy and Support for anyone struggling with any form of substance use disorders.

Peer Recovery Support is a transformative approach where individuals in recovery harness their lived experiences and trained skills to guide others on their path to healing. Through authentic connection and sustained engagement, this method fosters personal growth and supports long-term recovery. Rooted in evidence-based best practices, Peer Recovery Support empowers individuals to reclaim their lives with hope and resilience.

Risk Reduction represents both a practical methodology and a compassionate philosophy, created by and for those impacted by substance use. It focuses on minimizing the negative consequences associated with substance use disorders, offering a person-centered and judgment-free framework that prioritizes safety, dignity, and well being. Together, these approaches create a holistic, human-centered pathway to recovery and empowerment.

We foresee a community with less social harm where everyone can find hope and recovery.
