Description

Peer supports has played an important role in promoting quality of life and wellness for people with mental illness and substance abuse. We believe peer supports may be valuable to a broad range of cross-disability and cross-system stakeholders and have developed a training curriculum to prepare a range of peer specialists. Particular attention will be focused on young adults in transition from school to adult life.
