About Our Programs
The programs we offer are evidence-based, and peer facilitated by individuals with lived experience. This means that our programs are facilitated by individuals who are living with a mental health condition or have a family member living with a condition. The participants can learn and grow from one another and feel validated in the fact that they are not alone.
