Course Description:
This 3-day conference brings together peer supporters that have been selected by their departments or agencies, on a volunteer basis, from all ranks and positions within the workplace. Throughout the conference peer supporters will acquire supportive skills designed to help them assist co-workers who are experiencing a variety of life crisis situations.
Peer support provides a way for employees and their family members to confidentially talk about personal/professional problems with specially trained coworkers who understand and want to help.
The peer supporters will be instructed as para-professional counselors whose primary function is to LISTEN, ASSESS and whenever necessary, REFER to professional counselors. They are taught to complement those services provided by outside professionals. The program expands available resources by offering a greater field of choice to personnel who want to talk to someone who has been there and understands what it is like to work their jobs.
