What is peer support?
Focussed on collective knowledge and collaboration, peer support groups provide a space for people to share their experiences, feelings, and knowledge with others who can understand.
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.
