A new report by the Bazelon Center discusses the role of peer-led services in crisis support. From the report: “This paper endorses peer-led and peer-involved mental health crisis supports because they are what people with lived or living experience with a mental health challenge or disability want and need. They are effective at helping individuals achieve good outcomes, and they are cost-effective. A number of successful models for peer-led and peer-involved crisis services exist and are described below. We urge federal, state, and local governments to take action to expand their reach.” Click here for the report.
