Pathways Serious Mental Illness Society - Peer Support Program

Our peer support program provides family members with information and explanations of the illnesses, what the illnesses are and what to expect, personal support, understanding through others experiences, emergency advice, and recommendations on how to deal with the system.

This is one-on-one counselling, given freely without an eye on the clock. Meetings usually take place in the Centre or by telephone, including contact after hours if an unexpected development occurs. The support is provided by someone who knows the ropes and, equally important, understands the tumultuous feelings families are often contending with because he or she, being a family member, has gone through the same kinds of experiences.
