Reminder: Upcoming Peer Training Opportunities

 

Upcoming Online Courses, Workshops and Peer Support Groups
Peer Support Worker Training:
Becoming an Exploration Facilitator
It is a comprehensive, interactive and practical training of peer support workers and family peer support workers.
 
Who can be a peer support worker? Those people with their own experience of living with mental health/addiction issues. But wait, there’s more, we also train Family Peer Support Workers in the training.
 
Who can do that? A family member of someone living with a mental health/addiction issue.
 
We have designed the training to maximize your learning through the use of many teaching modalities. We will be using videos, slides, dialogue, interactive exercises and games, and lots of practice to fully equip you to be in communities providing valuable peer support services after this training. 
 
Throughout all training there is a strong emphasis on ensuring the incorporation of:
•  The Peer Support Canada Knowledge Matrix requirements related to peer support delivery, 
•  The Mental Health Commission of Canada’s (MHCC) peer support values (as outlined in the Guidelines for the Practice and Training of Peer Supporters), 
•  The principles of trauma informed support; and
•  Related components of the MHCC National Standard for Psychological Health and Safety.

The RPLYT Approach Workshop:
Understanding Homelessness
Treating People like People

Have you ever wondered about how people became homeless, why they don't just get a place to live, a job and stop lounging around the streets? Let's take away the "PC" and just have a frank and open conversation. This workshop is based around sharing the unique perspectives and experiences of those who have been deemed homeless at some point in their journey and will give you the ability to have a greater understanding of the issues and, if you choose to, how you can support people.

March 3rd 10:00am - 12:00pm CST
$45.00 plus gst/hst
ONLINE on Zoom
