Peer Support Pilot Hui

PeerZone has now successfully completed the peer support pilot which was funded by MSD to provide peer support to people on supported living payments in Porirua and Naenae. We would love to share the findings of the independent evaluation with you.

Please join us on Monday 21 May from 1.30 – 3.30 in Pember House where we will be sharing the evaluation over some light refreshments.

Spoiler alert – Peer support is TRANSFORMATIONAL to the people who access it!

“Peer support can catalyse profound life changes – both in self-image and life circumstances”

“Virtually all participants described transformations in their self-confidence, which led to a greater sense of choice about the future”

“Virtually all participants interviewed described major changes in confidence This major growth in confidence was typically attributed to three things:
You see someone like you, who’s thriving
They believe in you
They ask you, ‘what do you want?’ ”
