Peer Support
Peer support strives for recovery and, in doing so, it considers the wellness of the whole person. Empowering relationships, engagement in meaningful activities, and the ability to experience happiness are all part of recovery. The reduction or elimination of symptoms may be an important goal, but it is only one aspect of the person’s experience.
A peer support worker draws from their experiential knowledge, the happenings, emotions, and insights of their personal lived experience as they listen to, interact with, and support you with empathy and connectedness that comes from within. Peer support can also foster hope; hope in the possibility of a recovery that includes health, well-being, quality of life, and resilience.
Our Peer Support Workers are recovery-oriented and work in a person-centered approach, where the relationship (rather than the diagnosis) is the foundation, and services offered are focused on quality-of-life goals to promote personal growth.
Mental Health Support Worker

Our support workers can see you in your home or out in the community to assist with self-care and your psycho-social needs. Personal care is provided by an appropriately trained Support Worker and
