How do you ensure that peers continue their own adherence?

One thing WORLD staff always keeps in mind with regard to the peer advocate team is that they take care of themselves. If there is a peer advocate who is having problems with adherence, or any other medical issues, we encourage her to take medical leave and take care of herself. Similarly, at Kansas City Free Health Clinic there have been cases where the peer is asked to take a medical leave to take care of themselves or to get help.
