The Disability Dialogue, Open Dialogue event 2025: Connecting to community, peer support
The event started by explaining what peer support means: it is about people who have similar lived experiences connecting and sharing with each other.
We then discussed the benefits of peer support including emotional support, building confidence, sharing information, and creating a sense of belonging.
Guest speakers Rose-Ann and Romeo shared a great conversation about their work with Positive Powerful Parents (PPP). PPP is a self-advocacy group run by, and for, parents with intellectual disability that provides peer support.
We heard a presentation from Dr Qian Fang about her work researching people from diverse backgrounds. Dr Qiang Fang also had a conversation with David Yang about his peer support work in the Chinese community. They talked about the language and cultural barriers in accessing support.
