Peer Support

Peer support is when people use their own experiences to help each other. This is what we strive to do free of charge to fellow professionals from non-dominant identities. We primarily focus on peer support for Romani (GRT), Indigenous (Native), Disabled, Neurodivergent, unhoused and/or working-class (low income) peoples. Peer support can consist of sharing knowledge or providing emotional support, generalized social interaction or practical help with day-to-day life tasks. Your information is kept confidential always. Although we are NOT medical professionals, we strive to follow HIPAA privacy rules. Our goal is harm reduction and we are NOT mandated reporters. Our peer support services are funded partially through generous donations to our DEI Fund. We are NOT a crisis service. Suggested donation amount: $100
