Dartmouth Events

In this interactive learning space, come share and learn strategies rooted in peer support/ Mad Pride and disability justice community about how to ask for and receive peer support when you or another is dealing with overwhelming emotional hard times and crisis. We will amplify the skills and tools we're already using and troubleshoot around dynamics that are challenging. Participants will leave with a thick resource packet and hopefully some community connections.

Advance registration at dartgo.org/workshop is required.

Please contact Bevan Dunbar (bevan.dunbar@dartmouth.edu, 603-646-2770) with questions and accommodation requests.
