Meet our Peer Mentors!

Our goal is to provide hope and support to members in their individual recovery journey, creating a safe and nurturing community of peers and like-minded individuals. 


Peer mentors have personal experience with a mental health condition and have found ways to recover and improve their daily lives. All of our groups are facilitated by peer mentors as a way to show recovery is possible. 


While we offer a variety of mental health support groups, peer support is not group therapy. We do not offer clinical services or medication management.
