Peer Support Network

 

The Peer Support Network addresses issues members face daily - stigma and the ensuing isolation from family, friends, and the community, low self-confidence, feelings of hopelessness, and difficulty defining a self-identity. The aim of the network is to provide a forum for members to share their experiences, strengths, insights, and challenges.

The program includes weekly meetings in a safe and accepting open-group format one evening each week. It makes use of existing events, activities, and resources in the community to introduce and support members to access other resources.
