Advanced Topics in Strengthening Youth/Young Adult Peer Support: Clarifying Your Peer Support Role/s

The Northwest MHTTC in partnership with Pathways Research and Training Center (RTC) is pleased to announce a series of monthly consultation calls focused on “Advanced Topics in Strengthening Youth/Young Adult Peer Support.” Join us on the third Thursday of each month from 10-11 AM Pacific.

Pathways RTC Consult Calls

The first meeting is Thursday, October 22, 10-11 AM Pacific on “Clarifying Your Peer Support Role/s.” Research has shown that role clarity contributes to employees’ work satisfaction and retention. We will explore what this means in the context of youth/young adult peer support and share resources to help with role clarification. We will also be asking participants about their priorities for future meeting topics.

Here's what you can expect from each consultation call:

• Focus on one topic such as skill building, supervision, coaching and training, organizational policies and procedures, hiring and on-boarding, and more
• Sharing a practical resource related to the meeting's topic, such as  a strategy, tool, set of research findings, or template
• Time for focused discussion in which attendees can ask questions and share knowledge and ideas relevant to the day’s topic, followed by an open discussion of any topic related to youth/young adult peer support

To allow for interaction and discussion, registration will be limited. Register early to ensure your space! Attendees from each meeting will be given priority to register for the next one.
