Peer Wellness Center Now Welcomes You

RAMS Division of Peer-Based Services is extremely pleased and proud to announce that our Peer Wellness Center is now open. We are located at 1282 Market Street (Market & 9th Streets), San Francisco, CA 94102. Hours and days of operation are Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm.

RAMS Peer Wellness Center is an early engagement Center for adults seeking peer-based counseling services and peer-led activity groups. The Center serves as a safe place for peer participants to gain empowerment skills within an environment that utilizes empathy and peer support to help promote and inspire recovery. This Center supports consumers of San Francisco Behavioral Health Services that may face mental health and/or substance abuse issues.

The Peer Wellness Center offers activities, facilitated by Peer Counselors, that include but are not limited to: Peer-to Peer Support Groups, Healthy Living Workshops, Creative Arts Expression, Skills Building Classes, Community Social Events and On-Site Recreational Activities.

We welcome consumers, clinicians, and community partners to call, email or visit us during our Walk-In times to learn more about the Center. Below is a flyer that you can freely share as well as a referral form to assist us with establishing eligibility for services. Please note that the referral form is optional and assists us with the process of accepting participants into the program and developing an individual wellness plan. Individuals are welcome to enroll on their own. Click HERE to download the referral form.

We are excited about this new program and we are very much looking forward to the promotion of wellness and recovery services within our Peer Community!

The Center is open to consumers of Behavioral Health Services (SFDPH).

  1. Hello! I am a health coach and a master's candidate studying integrative wellness. I also am a volunteer crisis counselor, having undergone extensive training and background checks for this position. Are there any positions available at your newly opened center on Market? I heard about your services from one of your peer counselors who was featured this morning on TV. Thank you!
