Become a Person-Centred Emergency Planning Peer Leader
The Adelaide Hills Council is inviting expressions of interest from people with disability to become Person-Centred Emergency Preparedness (P-CEP) Peer Leaders.
P-CEP Peer Leaders are people with disability helping raise awareness with other people with a disability about P-CEP. The P-CEP is a framework and toolkit for people with disability to prepare for their safety and wellbeing in emergencies.
The Queensland Disability Network, together with Adelaide Hills Council will deliver their P-CEP Peer Leadership Program in February 2024 for people with a disability living in the Adelaide Hills and are currently seeking participants.
What is the P-CEP Peer Leadership Program?
The P-CEP Peer Leadership Program, developed by QDN and the University of Sydney, supports learning in Person-Centred Emergency Preparedness (P-CEP) and Peer Leadership.
The P-CEP Peer Leadership Program uses the P-CEP Workbook that was co-designed by people with disability to prepare for their safety and wellbeing in emergencies. It draws on the research that informed person-centred and strengths-based approaches to making an emergency plan tailored to individual support needs in emergencies.
P-CEP Peer Leaders are people with disability helping raise awareness with other people with disability about P-CEP.
The program introduces you to the P-CEP Workbook and helps you to take steps to get ready for emergencies.
