Bon Voyage AJ Schott, OWL360's Long-Time Peer Support Ally!

I don’t think I know how to put into words just how much every person I've worked with, whether for 20 minutes or 2-years, has made me a better person. I feel genuinely lucky to have been be part of their journeys." - AJ


What has been positive about your experience as a Peer Support Ally?


The positives of working as a Peer Support Ally with The Nest has been getting to support strength, recovery, passion, confidence and community within young people in our community. As a person who found a lot of support from peer support specialists I worked with when I was navigating my own mental health and substance use struggles as a teenager, it has felt incredibly rewarding to share my own story and offer the same support that helped empower me when I was younger. 

Where are you off to next?
