Peer Support is a support system that utilizes the peer relationship. Usually counseling is done by a professional counselor who is educated in psycho therapy. However, in Peer Counseling the counselor is a peer of the person receiving counseling, one who stands in the same position or has the same disorder or the same experience as the person being counseled. There are two merits to using peer counseling at universities and colleges. First, it can help students who are having some problems in their campus life. Second, the peer counselors who volunteer to participate can experience some growth in themselves as well. In this paper we reviewed selected recent articles on peer support or peer counseling in Japan in the fields of welfare, health and student counseling. These articles are reviewed from the following four points : 1) start and structure of peer counseling (peer support); 2) programs of peer counselor education; 3) reports of peer counseling practice; 4) maturing or changing of students in peer counselor training.
