We have virtual and in-person peer support options!
Currently the majority of our groups are offered virtually (by telephone or video, depending on your preference). Individual peer support is available in-person or virtually for those who access our group services.
All Self Help & Peer Support groups are open to adults living in Waterloo Wellington communities who identify as living with mental health or/and addiction issues. Participant’s can choose to attend any combination of drop-in and recovery learning groups.
