Donald Trump has launched attacks on all of us. These attacks highlight the need for peer support to empower individuals, particularly marginalized groups, to navigate these challenges. Peer support is very simple. Anyone can learn and use it very easily. Just go to the “Peer Support Model” dropdown to learn these tools for building a peer-support community in your group, be they immigrants, federal workers, trans people, veterans, etc. Everyone in a targeted community should have access to one-on-one listening turns with a supportive listener and regular meetings of larger peer support groups, as well as structured discussions to encourage activism. Peer support can strengthen collective action and contribute to a more just and effective society. We offer guidance and support on setting up establishing these networks of listening turns, support groups and structured peer discussions.
