Abstract

Peer navigator programs (PNP) may help reduce physical health disparities for ethnic minorities with serious mental illness (SMI). However, specific aspects of PNP that are important to peer navigators and their clients are under-researched. A qualitative study explored the perspectives of service users (n = 15) and peer navigators (n = 5) participating in a randomized controlled trial of a PNP for Latinos with SMI. Results show PN engagement with service users spans diverse areas and that interactions with peers, trust, and accessibility are important from a service user perspective. PNs discussed needs for high-quality supervision, organizational support, and additional resources for undocumented Latinos.
