I'm also continuing with the peer specialist classes, and am still planning to look for a pt job in early November.
That's awesome! I'm really frustrated with my peer support specialist training because it's combined with the family support specialist and 95% is about family perspective and it's to the point where it feels like the peer perspective doesn't matter, like the voice of the person with the illness doesn't matter. I've given them this feedback and asked them to give a more balanced view but they seem to be ignoring me. I might see who is in charge of their department to give that feedback beyond them.
