Meet the PEER Board 2026-27

PEER Board is made up of former mentors and mentees who return each year to help organize and plan the program! Whether it’s through planning annual retreats, hosting leadership development workshops, or volunteering with organizations in the broader Philadelphia API community, Board plays an integral role in supporting mentor-mentee pairings and strengthening the PEER family <3
