Supporting the lived experience through the implementation of peer-to-peer kinship navigation services

, , , , , & show all
 

ABSTRACT

Peer-to-Peer Kinship Navigation (P2PKN) involves employing someone with lived kinship caregiving experience to provide support to others experiencing similar challenges. The following mixed methods study partnered with kinship navigators and supervisors to better understand how to support peer-to-peer kinship navigators during implementation. A new tool, The P2P Implementation Tool, was designed to identify the types of specific program activities and time spent on each during implementation. Findings revealed opportunities for organizations to better support the unique experiences and expertise provided by peers. Results suggest ways to improve P2PKN implementation and provide more support to these important workers.
