We Didn't Invent the Wheel: Peer Support as an Evolutionary Necessity

Southeast MHTTC The Peer Perspective on Respite 4-Part Series:

Join us for this 4-part series as we take a look at mental health respite care from the peer perspective, including discussions on its history and future direction, when and how it is being used (both in the Southeast and nationally), and the ways it can benefit one's recovery journey.

  • Monday, June 26, 2023 (12:00 PM ET) | We Didn't Invent the Wheel: Peer Support as an Evolutionary Necessity: In Part 2 of our series presenters discuss how the peer support/respite model is not new but builds on models as recent as the early 20th century self-help groups. Different respite models and their unique benefits and challenges will be explored.

Our presenters will also forecast what they believe will (or should) come next for the mental health recovery community. (Click Here to Register!)
