"’Once a Peer Always a Peer’: A Qualitative Study of Peer Specialist Experiences With Employment Following State Certification.” with Elizabeth Siantz, PhD.

The Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation is pleased to present “Making Sense of Employment Research”, a webinar series designed to discuss a recent published research study, in a clear and relevant way, even for those who know little or nothing about research.

This presentation qualitatively explores recently certified Peer Specialists’ experiences with navigating the job market to find post-certification employment, experiences with employment once in the workforce, and reflections on CPS training.

Dr. Siantz is an assistant professor at the University of Utah College of Social Work. Her research aims to improve health equity and quality of life among persons with serious mental illness (SMI) and substance use disorders through the implementation of self-management education, integrated behavioral health services, and peer support specialists. Dr. Siantz is currently PI of a K01 award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse to study the adaptation and implementation of a peer-led chronic disease self-management program for primary care patients with opioid use disorder and SMI. She is also a VA-funded Implementation Research Institute (IRI) fellow at Washington University St. Louis.
