Peer Educator Program

The Peer Educator Program at the Center for Counseling and Personal Growth provides peer-led psychoeducational learning experiences for the Clark University student community.

Peer Educators are committed to teaching skills that will help students to reduce the potential for distressful life experiences. Students who serve as Peer Educators at CPG help the Clark community by:

• Developing and delivering workshops/training sessions covering a variety of mental health topics
• Marketing the services of the counseling center to the campus community
• Assisting CPG staff with outreach programming
• Assessing need of the student body regarding mental health issues

As Peer Educators, students will meet on a weekly basis, receive group supervision regarding their programming and outreach projects, and engage in a didactic experience that provides education and training to help increase social, self-management, and helping skills.

Students can become a Peer Educator as a volunteer opportunity or for Internship credits. If you are interested in becoming a Peer Educator or if you have any questions, please email Anushka Mohapatra.
