This FREE continuing education opportunity brings experts by experience to expand peer specialist skills, knowledge and best practices.

TAY Peer Supporters advocate for and create supportive spaces for their communities while going through critical transitions in their lives. This webinar centers the experiences of these individuals while providing guidance for colleagues on how to help them build and maintain wellness habits that can support them throughout their entire careers. Though the research that informs this webinar focuses on the transitional age group, the skills and strategies discussed can be used at any age or career stage. All are welcome to join for this session that emphasizes personal wellness as a necessary component of community care.
