In this Supervision Learning Network meeting, Dr. Forbes touched briefly upon the literature and her own research, which explored the experiences of Peer Support Workers/Advocates (PSW/A) supervised by non-peer supervisors. Then engaged participants in a robust conversation about what it takes to supervise this unique workforce. Whether you are a supervisor with experience as a PSW/A (“peer supervisor”) or someone that does not have that lived experience (a “non-peer supervisor”), you will learn more about challenges and some of the solutions to these challenges in providing supervision to the PSW/A workforce.
