Hello,

We are looking to add new moderators to our site. https://www.paywhatyoucanpeersupport.com/

We need a new OCD moderator and a new domestic abuse/narcissistic abuse survivor group moderator. We give 80% of what participants pay (what they can) but in the near future as we get more grants and funding we will be paying the moderators a base rate of $50/session and we would ultimately like that to grow to $100/session.

Researchers conducted interviews with people who use drugs to identify the factors that enable and deter them from getting vaccinated against the COVID-19 virus in Canada.
