Peer Supporters unite! M2, M3, and M4 students who join the Peer Support Program are trained in active listening, the Question, Persuade, Respond suicide prevention method, wellness and health promotion, and relaxation techniques to support their peers. The group was originally intended so upperclass-students could support the new M-1 cohort during their adjustment to medical school. It has grown to include a wide variety of student organized events that bring the campus together, while also providing a much needed and very wholesome break from studies.
