Service Description:
|
Family Peer Support Services is comprised of members caring for a loved one with a Mental Health and/or Addiction concern.
We help facilitate communication:
- among families
- mental health care givers and the community
- support members' loved ones during treatment, recovery and return to their life in the community
Combining education, advocacy, information sharing, and peer support, we encourage growth and healing in a safe and confidential place.
In collaboration with our local and regional partners, we provide opportunities for personal development and ensure our members' voices are heard by those who influence change.
