What is peer support?

Peers are those with similar lived experiences who can understand and offer support.

Peer support groups create an environment that uses collective knowledge, lived experience, and a mutual approach to build awareness and knowledge. The relationships and community built through peer support groups can also offer emotional and practical support.
