Karen Liberman reminded everyone why peer support workers are so dedicated to the work that they do at the October 5th 2011 Peer Support meeting in Ottawa, ON.
All I can say is wow- this video speaks volumes on many levels. As a peer specialist, I can agree with everything Ms. Liberman says. This was beautifully articulated and the examples were great to connect people to how things may be - re: Canadian pin verses "been there" with mental illness. Some people do not see the similiarities till a visual is brought forth- great job with this part! You are a great speaker and I am glad to know you are also a peer worker, working for the greater cause! :)
