New Peer Support Resource Site!

February 23, 2015

Have you checked out psresources.info?Peer Roles Handbook Cover

This website was developed in the fall of 2014 and offers a growing number of resources, including articles relevant to peer-to-peer support, helpful on-line links, and – most importantly – free downloads of a new Handbook on Peer Roles.

Side 1: The Provider’s Handbook on Developing & Implementing Peer Roles:

This side of the book – geared toward people in provider roles – was developed by Lyn Legere in partnership with the Western Mass RLC and Western Mass Peer Network.

Side 2: A Handbook for Individuals Working in Peer Roles:

This side of the book-geared toward people working in peer roles-was developed by the Western Mass RLC and Western Mass Peer Network.

Between the two sides, topics include: Job descriptions, hiring, supervision issues, identifying what is and isn’t a task of a peer role, language, navigating the tricky waters of being a change agent, history of peer roles, and much, much more!

Be sure to check out www.psresources.info for more!
