This year's theme, Peer Powered Systems, will focus on sharing knowledge and common goals; improving strategies for building inclusive communities, and learning how to maximize individual and collective strengths.
Alaska Peer Partnership Conference is hosted by the Alaska Peer Support Consortium, a statewide network of peer-operated, peer-support behaviorial health organizations.
A peer is someone with a lived, personal experience of behavioral health issues; including mental illness, addiction, developmental disabilities, brain injury, Alzheimers and related dementia, and similar challenges. A primary caretaker of someone with these experiences is often defined as a peer.
We will be offering NASW continuing education credits and highly encourage peers and other direct service providers working in the behavioral health field to attend!
