Abstract
The Elders Health Program established a treatment program for chemically dependent seniors using a peer and professional co-leadership approach. This paper describes the development of this treatment approach, and the results. With chemically dependent seniors, the peer co-leader provided a role model by offering not only hope and optimism, but also ideas to assist them with maintaining abstinence. The E.H.P. experience showed that peer co-leadership was effective when working with chemically dependent seniors.
