FAQ

Is AI a replacement for peer support?

No. Use your peer support team, EAP, or call/text 988 in the US if you are in crisis.

Not medical or legal advice. Follow your local protocols and medical direction. Never enter PHI into AI tools without a signed BAA and agency approval. Verify all AI output.
