- Peer-Led Emotional Support Modelmethodology: peer_supportBy connecting individuals facing health-related work disruption with trained peer volunteers who share lived experience, we produce deeper emotional resilience and engagement in recovery, because shared experience fosters authentic connection and reduces isolation.
