Lisa Pous, a passionate advocate, survivor, and peer support leader, offers meaningful insight into the nuanced realities of peer support. Drawing from both evidence-based practices and lived experience, Lisa demonstrates how survivor community can function as a stand-alone service — one that increases protective factors for healing while also strengthening staff and program capacity.
With a focus on defining peer support and advancing an integrated, voluntary service model, Lisa walks participants through the key components and guiding principles that make peer support impactful, sustainable, and deeply rooted in survivor leadership.
