Retraining and Growing the Youth Peer Support Workforce
February 3, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
More agencies are seeing the benefits of the youth peer support specialist role, and are working hard to integrate this role within their mental health services. One challenge that many agencies have is mitigating the high level of burnout for youth peer support specialists while growing the workforce within their organization and/or community. In this webinar, two experienced youth peer support specialists (and youth peer support specialist supervisors) will discuss concrete strategies for retaining and growing the youth peer support workforce.This webinar is hosted in partnership with Pathways to Positive Futures.
