Yes. We take privacy very seriously and maintain HIPAA-compliant standards.

WEconnect utilizes GPS location verification and URL verification to validate routine check-ins. It's only possible to check into routines if a member is in the right place at the right time. All member activity is visible on back-end dashboards, so improper use of the app signals a care team to intervene.

WEconnect Peer recovery support specialists (PRSS) have either a state-recognized certification or a national credential. Peers are also encouraged to become NAADAC-certified within 6 months of hire. Requirements for obtaining a credential varies by state, but typically requires:

- 20-100 hours of peer work, signed off on by a supervisor
- Personal or lived recovery experience
- Passing score on a test demonstrating knowledge of recovery, treatment, and ethical boundaries

Every member of our PRSS team is trained in recovery management, education, and advocacy, professional ethics and responsibility, and confidentiality.

You will expand upon this exercise during your interview, so please be prepared to discuss that and for the possibility of some virtual whiteboarding as well.
