Often, youth and their parents have different goals, use different approaches, and experience tension around their evolving roles as they become more independent. This multi-part series will focus on the collaborative relationship between youth and parent peer support providers (YPSP and PPSP) when working with the same families and provide strategies for their teamwork that supports both the youth and parents. Areas addressed during the series include establishing role clarity to operate as a team, dealing with conflicting priorities and disagreement, and engaging in collaborative planning while modeling effective strategies and actions for families. Through shared experiences, case studies, and practical exercises, participants will explore best practices in building a collaborative relationship that values the youth and parent perspective while implementing a team approach to empower youth and families. Whether new to Youth or Parent peer support or an experienced specialist, this series offers valuable insights and tools to enhance your practice and foster positive outcomes for those you serve.
