The Peer Model: the Ethics in Efficacy

The Peer Model: the Ethics in Efficacy

Statistics show that when peer services are delivered with adherence to the peer model and within recovery-oriented systems, they are highly effective for the participants and the systems employing them (SAMHSA). 

While the knowledge and experience brought into organizations and their systems by peers are extremely important, there are also great challenges as most of these systems operate in paradigms that differ greatly from the recovery-oriented environments peers are most effective in, leading to poor outcomes when appropriate support is lacking. 

We must ask: What are the ethical considerations in hiring, training, supervising, and retaining people with lived-living experience in existing organizations? This workshop provides ethically informed, policy-driven, equitable, and inclusive approaches that can be intentionally implemented within organizations of all kinds.
