The Peer Collective is a group of interprofessional students in health professions education (HPE) programs that aims to foster a sense of belonging across programs and create opportunities for students to support one another in a low pressure, peer led environment. The students serve as Peer Facilitators after training in principles of active listening and empathic validation. The Peer Collective hosts monthly activity-based group meetings designed to provide a welcoming space for students to share experiences, build community, and strengthen well being through guided discussions and collaborative activities.
