SUMMARY:Conversations About Suicide (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Dates: October 26th \nTime: 9:00am -5:00pm EST \nDescription: As peer support workers\, we will sometimes support folks who are thinking of dying by suicide. This participatory workshop is intended to support ourselves\, fellow staff\, and service recipients to engage in conversations about suicide in ways that prioritize compassion\, empathy\, and autonomy. We’ll spend time unpacking suicide as a language of pain\, then consider why\, when\, and how to respond to folks who are thinking about dying. Through sharing personal stories\, opening up dialogue\, and practicing difficult conversations\, we will educate and support each other to remain curious\, lean into discomfort\, and center mutuality. \nTo register\, CLICK HERE!

SUMMARY:Intentional Peer Support Advanced Training

The Advanced Training is for anyone who has completed a Core Training. Please read more about the Advanced IPS Training on the IPS Website here.  \nThis training is generously sponsored by the Peer Workforce Development Initiative–there is  a $75 fee per participant for IPS Core Materials.

SUMMARY:Conversations about Oppression and Privilege
DESCRIPTION:March 30th 12:30pm -4:30pm \nAs peer support workers\, we are sometimes faced with difficult conversations around oppression and privilege. We may encounter a service recipient who expresses racist or misogynistic worldviews. A co-worker may make a homophobic or transphobic remark. We may encounter sanist and ableist ideologies within the mental health system. We may even face our own implicit biases. \nThis participatory workshop is intended to support ourselves\, fellow staff\, and service recipients to engage in conversations about oppression and privilege. We’ll spend time unpacking oppression\, privilege\, and bias\, then consider why\, when\, and how to respond. Through sharing personal stories\, opening up dialogue\, and practicing difficult conversations\, we will educate and support each other to engage in conversations consistent with anti-bias values.
