Lake County Center for Independent Living

Peer Mentors are persons with disabilities who are trained to support, encourage and otherwise assist another person with a similar disability, or similar life situation to increase independence and maintain the quality of life they desire for themselves. Potential Peer Mentors are recommended by the board of directors and/or staff of Lake County Center for Independent Living. Peer Mentors are matched with mentees, based on the needs of the mentee as determined by the Program Director.
