Findings/Key points

Supporting Peer Work (SPW) is a resource site for the community-guided participatory action research project of the same name, which did our research in Toronto, Canada from 2020-2023. This project was steered by a committee of workers with lived/living expertise - also known as “peers". We offer our research reports and tools for organizational change free to view, download, and share widely. The Supporting Peer Work project documented how “low barrier” social service agencies treat peers.
