DESCRIPTION:What role do friends\, classmates\, and peers play in mental he
 alth? More than you might think. Edwin Fisher\, PhD\, will share how peer 
 support has been used around the world to strengthen mental health and wel
 lbeing. From informal encouragement among friends to structured peer progr
 ams in schools\, workplaces\, and health care\, Dr. Fisher will highlight 
 the value of peer support and mutuality in promoting social\, personal\, m
 ental\, vocational\, relational and other aspects of wellbeing. This sessi
 on will explore strategies for supporting one another\, along with populat
 ion-level approaches that integrate peer support into communities and syst
 ems. Participants will leave with insights and tools for giving and receiv
 ing peer support.\n\nThe Mental Health Seminar series offers students\, gr
 aduate students\, post-doctoral fellows\, faculty\, and staff insight into
  the research and practice of mental health. They create a space for learn
 ing\, reflection and discussion. The overall goal of the seminars is to em
 power campus community members to help influence the culture of mental hea
 lth and well-being. Campus Life Experience credit will be provided to unde
 rgraduate students who attend the each seminar. Join us!
