Peer Support was an idea thought of by KSI QUEEN K in 2020 as a way for members to lend a listening ear to each other. The department was tested extensively in KSI’s then partner server Gamers Resort Inc. before being brought to KSI by KSI QUEEN K and KSI Mizz Airy 7. With the help of dozens of members offering a shoulder to lean on and an ear to listen to peer support had a very successful run in KSI by offering resources ranging from links and phone numbers to members who may have been in any type of mental health crisis. Many members over the years have noted how useful the department had been to them and how much they had benefited from what the department offered. At the launch of the department KSI Mizz Airy 7 was the lead while training KSI QUEEN K to take over once Airy had stepped away to make herself available for new opportunities. With Queen now the lead she chose KSI Pathogens as her co-lead. With his knowledge and people skills Pathogens would make the perfect choice to take over as lead when Queen took her break from KSI in late 2020.
