A don't-miss discussion on how AI can be used in health and behavioral health systems to strengthen, without replacing, peer support specialists and the essential role they play in recovery-oriented services

AI Webinar Flyer

As technology and AI continue to evolve and integrate themselves into our health and behavioral health systems, we must question how AI and these new technologies can strengthen our society while maintaining a level of humanity in our work at the same time.

Join us for the 13th Think Bigger Do Good webinar, “Integrating Artificial Intelligence into Peer Support." This webinar, led by GSAPP Research Professor, Margaret Swarbrick (Ph.D.) and Nev Jones (Ph.D.), will discuss the framework they created for the responsible and ethical integration of AI into our health and behavioral health systems. They will be looking at the issue through the lenses of ethics, privacy, transparency, accountability, costs, and the protection of the integrity of peer practice.

Students, faculty/staff, and advocates are invited to participate in this pressing discussion.
