Peer Support – The Healing Power of Shared Experience

Tonight, we’re talking all things peer support. As a NC Certified Peer Support Specialist, Bonnie takes the lead in telling us about her experience. If you’ve ever thought about being a peer, working with a peer, or you know someone who might benefit from working with a peer, this is the episode for you. We’ll be discussing what defines peer support work, how to become a peer support specialist, the settings where peers often work, the beauty and the challenges of peer support work, and why Bonnie will always consider herself a peer even after becoming licensed. So, settle in with us after bedtime as we discuss this important topic.   For more information on how to become a NC Certified Peer Support Specialist: https://pss.unc.edu/   Have a topic you’d like us to cover?
