Support groups for peers and individuals with psychosis or schizophrenia spectrum conditions offer a compassionate and understanding environment to connect with others facing similar challenges. Through shared experiences and mutual support, participants provide encouragement, practical advice, and coping strategies, fostering a sense of community and belonging.
Beyond our general peer groups, we also have some offerings with specific focuses for our community:
Games Matter! Social Connection Group: Play games in a relaxing environment with fellow community members
Recovery Road: Schizophrenia & Psychosis Young Adult PEER Support: Connect with fellow young adults navigating their journey through life and recovery
S&PAA peer support groups are designed to be evidence informed, recovery oriented, hope driven, and person centered. Register below to sign up for a support group today:
