Following more than six years of participatory action activities at peer support workforce conferences, three researchers and practitioners with lived experience, Jeremy Reuling, Rita Cronise, and Jessica Wolf, have developed this agenda identifying ten peer support workforce priorities with recommendations for action based on what they heard from members of the workforce. The Action Agenda can be used both to improve stakeholders’ understanding of challenges faced by the peer workforce, and as a guide to specific strategies to address them effectively at all stakeholder levels.
