As a peer to peer psychosocial support structure, WISER utilizes houses of wisdom. These are houses that facilitate conversations and collective growth, whilst building lasting friendships! Additionally, mentorship and instilling life skills as some of the key roles of the houses of wisdom. Recently, WISER hosted Kenya Connect staff who learned about this model through house leaders and peer educators.
