What is a significant outcome of effective peer advocacy?

  1. Increased stigma towards peers

  2. A decrease in peer respect

  3. Enhanced dignity for individuals in recovery

  4. Reduced community involvement

The correct answer is: Enhanced dignity for individuals in recovery

Effective peer advocacy leads to enhanced dignity for individuals in recovery because it empowers them and validates their experiences. Advocates who share similar challenges can create an environment where individuals feel understood, respected, and supported. This advocacy often focuses on affirming the worth of those in recovery, promoting a positive self-image, and encouraging individuals to take an active role in their recovery journey. As peers share their stories and provide support, it reinforces the message that recovery is possible and that individuals have the right to be treated with dignity and respect, significantly impacting their self-perception and overall well-being.
