Curious if the facilitators are licensed clinicians.
There's a bit of a push for "per led support". Some of the jargon includes "co production" and "co delivery".
Here's a nice introduction to co-production: http://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/your-stories/co-p...
>Co-production is essentially where professionals and citizens share power to plan and deliver support services together, recognising that both partners have a vital contribution to make. One example of a co-produced approach we reviewed is the Service User Network in Croydon. The network has been designed jointly by psychiatrists and service users who work together on an ongoing basis to deliver it. The network combines professional and lived experience and creates active networks that support people’s recovery.
You're right that it's a bit scary, and that care needs to be taken around clinical governance and data governance.

There's peer to peer to support within a clinical model and peer to peer to support absent one. The cartoons in the article illustrate the breadth of possibility within the latter.
Here's a video from the Health foundation about it.

There are two "Tackling stigma" campaigns you might be interested in. One is "Time to Change" from England. They have a range of great materials. (I've had some minor involvement with a Time to Change project): http://www.time-to-change.org.uk/
The other is the Australian "Soften the Fuck Up": http://softenthefckup.spurprojects.org/
Good luck! I'd be really interested to hear about the results.
