Peer Support might suit you if you’re looking for support from someone who has made sense of their own lived experience and will share their learning and wisdom from that personal journey of sense-making.
Peer Support Workers will not only share their own learning but can support you to address any of the challenges you might face, including self-stigma, self-efficacy, community connection, self-advocacy and holistic wellbeing. Their firsthand experiences of marginalisation, whether through mental health and/or addiction challenges or other social issues, bring a unique perspective that foster deep compassion, connection and an understanding of the day-to-day challenges people often face.
Our Peer Support services are designed to be relationally focused and offer you opportunities to engage in a relationship with a difference – one that supports you to discover your own potential and learn with and alongside your peer worker; supports you to build a network and community that sets you up with a deep sense of connection and belonging; and supports you to achieve your hopes and aspirations.
