Creating, Managing and Supporting Spaces for Young Adult Experts and Peers (2018) was first imagined in mid-2018 as a culminating event of the Housing Outreach ProjectCollaborative (HOP-C). Led by young adult Peer Specialist, Mardi Daley and a team of front-line workers and researchers, the full-day Design Lab was meant to bring diverse stakeholders together on the premise of building better understanding and policies for organizations that do (or want to do) peer support with young adults. This report is a summary of the findings from the day with minimal additions and edits to the content. Inside this report you will find recommendations for Organizational Readiness, Ethical Inclusion and the Peer Role. Both peers and non-peers alike must feel valued and supported as we evolve to be more person-centered and equitable in our practices.
