PATH (Peer Advanced Training in Harm Reduction) to Reducing Burnout Among Peers Who Deliver Harm Reduction Services (R61 Phase Pilot)

Enrolling by invitation · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Burnout, Compassion Satisfaction, Secondary Trauma

In brief

The investigators propose to develop and test the effectiveness of PATH (Peer Advanced Training in Harm reduction) as an educational workforce intervention for improving peer recovery support specialists' (PRSS) harm reduction (HR) service delivery ability and quality and as a PRSS workforce and service system support. The PATH intervention combines (a) virtual education and (b) case-based consultation. The investigators hypothesize that PATH will improve organizational-level PRSS burnout, additional workforce outcomes, and HR service quality.
