Peer Researcher Job Opportunities

The Peers Examining Experiences in Research Study (PEERS) is recruiting four research assistants. PEERS is a SSHRC-funded qualitative study that aims to examine how peer researchers experience their involvement in participatory research within four communities: consumer/survivor communities; communities of people who use drugs; lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer (LGBTQ) communities, and racialized communities. 

They are looking for one research assistant from each of these communities who has experience both as a peer researcher and conducting qualitative interviews. Below are the job postings for each of the positions:
