How to Become a Peer-Support
Ninja By Jim Burneka Jr., Retired Firefighter and Author of Overcoming Tuesday
Unlike the fire service’s open communication, successful peer support programs operate discreetly, emphasizing confidentiality and informal, ninja-like interactions
The fire service is universally known and respected for its transparency and effective communication with the public it serves. The tax-paying public demands and is usually granted insight into the inner workings of the business conducted within the department. Peer support shouldn’t follow the same mindset.
A SUCCESSFUL PEER SUPPORT TEAM WORKS IN THE SHADOWS AND CONSISTS OF STEALTHY PEER SUPPORT NINJAS. A ninja is essentially someone who excels at a particular skill or job. Following these simple steps will help you attain peer-support ninja status.
