peer-led programs

Peer-led programs are initiatives where individuals with similar experiences or backgrounds lead educational or support activities for their peers. These programs leverage the idea that people often relate better to those who have faced similar challenges or shared circumstances. For example, students might lead study groups for fellow students, or individuals in recovery might support others facing addiction. The goal is to promote learning, sharing, and growth in a collaborative environment, often resulting in increased engagement and effectiveness compared to traditional top-down approaches.
