In Community Projects
The In Community projects below offer individual peer learners like you an important opportunity to connect to the wider community of peer workers. They represent a wide range of peer-designed training tools that dive deeper into specialized areas of peer support work such as working alongside sex workers, a history of prohibition and the drug user liberation movement. You may want to pair In Community projects that are of particular interest to you and your work with a program of relevant modules available under Courses.

“I was never given any core values to have as a guide interacting with those I worked with. I only had my own values to rely on. It takes the onus off me knowing that I have a set of standards that are the same across the board.”
