Description
Intentional Peer Support (IPS) is a way of thinking about and inviting powerful, transformative relationships. Peer workers learn to use relationships to see things from new angles, develop greater awareness of personal and relational patterns, and support and challenge each other in trying new things.IPS is an exciting approach and works to broaden the lens to support and enhance localised models of peer support.For nearly twenty years, IPS has been inspiring and training people in community, peer support, and human services settings all over the world to be intentional about the way they connect and build mutual relationships. IPS has been widely used as a foundation training for people working in both traditional and alternative mental health settings.
Managers Training (2 days)
Through the managers training managers, and people working alongside peer workers, are equipped to understand the IPS framework. Having IPS trained clinicians within your organisation can help ensure that the work of peer workers is well supported and understood. This framework will also support all participants, irrespective of their role, to reflect upon themselves and to develop a greater awareness of the relationships they form.
