Self-Care for the Peer Specialist

Our mental health is strongly influenced by how we take care of ourselves. While self-care is important for everyone; it is particularly important for those of us engaged in peer support and caregiving professions. We can best support others when we first care for ourselves. Join Denise Camp, Advanced Level WRAP Facilitator, to explore the importance of self-care and how you can do small things to improve your mental health and wellness. Workshop participants will learn to: - Define mental health and wellness for themselves; - Understand how their mental health and wellness affects their work as a peer specialist; - Develop personal tools for improving and maintaining mental health and wellness.
