What we heard from the consultations on Peer Support Program

March 30, 2022 -  Defence Stories

In fall 2021, the Sexual Misconduct Response Centre invited currently serving and former CAF members with lived experience of sexual assault and sexual harassment to take part in a consultation process to develop a peer support program. In addition to consultations with people with lived experience, we also engaged with subject matter experts in trauma, military sexual trauma, and peer support model development.

What we heard

Since then, we analyzed the consultation data and identified key themes and recommendations.

An infographic of the key themes and thoughts from consultation participants as well as a complete report can be found on our website.

Next Steps

We still want to hear your thoughts and ideas. If you are a current or former CAF member affected by sexual misconduct and would like to participate in a focus group to hear more, and have a say, on the peer support program model, please send an email to: SMRCPSP-CIISPSP@forces.gc.ca.
