About this Event

"Be The One You Needed"

Join us for our 2nd Annual Peer Support Community Event where we come together to support and empower one another. This year's theme is "Be The One You Needed", shining a light on Peer Supports and what they do as well as focusing on the importance of being there for others in the way we needed someone to be there for us.

This event will take place at the 4-H Building (Exhibit Hall), providing a welcoming space for connection and growth. We will have a Speaker that will share information about becoming a Peer Support, peers will be there to share success stories and encourage you, and discuss how being "the one you needed" would look like for you! Don't miss out on this opportunity to receive community resources, hear from a lived experience panel, enjoy a FREE LUNCH, enter for a chance to win one of our Prize Giveaways, and enjoy some outdoor activities! We will have a bounce house for kids and face painting. We can't wait to see you there!
