Lynn Jefferys – Peer Support Worker
Lynn began their work in harm reduction services in 2009 volunteering at a 24-hour drop-in centre for sex workers in Vancouver, Canada. They have since had experience in youth work, housing first, mental health & addiction, human resources administration, low threshold program management and outreach. Most recently they worked as a relief project worker for Depaul in 2016, and now working as the Peer Support Worker for UISCE, they are a firm believer in community-based organizing and self-determination for people who access services.
