Peer Support: Today and Beyond
6th Annual FolkTime Breakfast
Wednesday, March 12th
7:30-9:00am
Multnomah Athletic Club
Peer Support Specialists, Mental Health Professionals and Administrators will discuss Peer Support in the current healthcare system and where we go from here. Peer programs are growing rapidly in the Portland metropolitan area and the potential for future partnerships is staggering. Peers offer a unique service within health care systems as well as cost savings through decreased utilization of services and creative partnerships with nonprofit community organizations. We will discuss these exciting possibilities this year at the Breakfast.
Our keynote speaker, Jill Archer, MSW, will start the discussion followed by a panel continuing the conversation.
