Peer Plus Education and Training Advocates is a Registered Non-For-Profit in the State of Illinois
Peer Plus Education and Training Advocates is a 501(c)3 that identifies underserved populations in the Midwest area and provides culturally sensitive programs that address the multifaceted issues of people in need of essential health, educational, and psychosocial services. Peer Plus also provides non-medical education, training and related workshops.
As a community-based organization, Peer Plus has an extensive network of health centers, free clinics, local hospitals and social service agencies that support us in our efforts and overall mission. This, in turn, facilitates our competence in meeting the needs and challenges of populations who are disproportionately impacted by social and environmental factors of health.
Our volunteers have substantial experience in a variety of areas. They include significant background and knowledge of chronic and preventable illnesses—such as asthma, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure and HIV disease—as well as expertise in supervision, financial education, fundraising, marketing, and event planning in a variety of settings.
