As youth peer support becomes more integrated into service delivery of crisis response systems, we must consider what this peer support looks like within Mobile Response Stabilization Services (MRSS). Session 3 of our five-part webinar series covers incorporating youth peer support staff and program administrators across each phase of the crisis continuum: Someone to Contact, Someone to Respond, and a System to Support.

This workshop is part of a free live webinar series focused on meaningful collaboration with youth and young adults in the design, staffing, and implementation of mobile response and stabilization services. Presented by Youth MOVE National and Innovations Institute at the UConn School of Social Work, the series engages participants in discussion of how to collaboratively build services that truly meet the needs of youth and young adults. Beginning March 30, the series launches with a discussion of best practices for integrating youth perspectives in the design of crisis systems. 988 and crisis system design leaders, including young people with first-hand lived experience navigating mental health crises, are encouraged to participate.
