WHO WE ARE
We’re all peers here! Our staff and volunteers all share lived experience. We get it, and we’re here for you. Our mission is to provide free peer support, self-help, education, guidance, advocacy, and referral services for adults who have acknowledge that they have experienced significant problems in their lives due to challenges with mental health, substance use, or trauma.
