ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Mental health challenges are reshaping the student experience, but traditional counseling can’t reach everyone. In this episode of Inside the Learning Experience podcast, we discuss the findings in Beyond Counseling: Unlocking Student Belonging through Peer Connection, one of our latest reports, which provides an overview of the pilot with WGU and Flourish Labs that tested professional peer support as a scalable complement to clinical services.
Learn how peer supporters with shared lived experiences helped students build confidence, focus, and a stronger sense of belonging, and what higher ed leaders need to know about implementing these models effectively.
