Peer support is provided by an individual who has experienced mental health challenges first hand. We have many peer supporters on our team with lived experience in a number of areas including anxiety, depression, addiction, grief and loss, plus family and workplace challenges.
Peer support is not therapy nor is it a clinical service. It is an opportunity to be listened to by a person who has no judgement, no plans to fix you, but does have perspective of similar experiences and their own recovery journey.
No one understands mental health issues better than someone who lives with them every day.

Action In Recovery
The Action In Recovery (AIR) Group is a weekly peer support group founded and led by Ryan Dion.
Group members are given an opportunity to “air” their positive and negative experiences and work together to set practical (SMART) goals related to personal recovery efforts.
AIR Group’s focus is to help the community develop positive mental health by empowering individuals for recovery in a group setting.
For more info, please check out our group site at airgroup.ca
