This is a recording of the kickoff session for Creating Safe Spaces for Peer Support Providers and Incorporating Anti-racist Practices in Peer Support Delivery that took place on December 7, 2022.

Session 1 featured a special guest, Javan Jones, of Jones Community Solutions and was facilitated by Evelyn Clark, CPC.

They facilitated a group discussion on a variety of topics, including how to create safe spaces, the foundation of racism in our medical system, why mental advocacy should uplift BIPOC voices of lived experience, and more. 

This series is recommended for peer support agencies and peer specialists who identify as Black, Indigenous, and people of color who work in mental health and cross-systems and allies to help support the BIPOC peer workforce.
