Grounded in lived experience. Growing through education.
We’re excited to announce a new name for one of CMWN’s longest-running programs: formerly known as our Quarterly Peer Networking Events, Rooted: A Free Peer Support Learning Exchange continues our commitment to free, high-quality continuing education for Peer Support Professionals across Colorado.
These workshops create opportunities for us to return to our roots as a peer support community – we’re learning from each other, supporting each other’s growth, and exploring new practices together as the landscape changes.
While the name is changing, the heart of the program remains the same: community-driven learning, powerful conversations, and practical tools to help you stay connected, stay certified, and grow in your role.
"Much like the root system of aspen trees, the peer movement thrives when we remain connected to one another. This new Rooted series aims to not only return to our roots of shared wisdom, but also to foster growth through a supportive network for all Peer Support Professionals in Colorado."
