Face to Face Support Groups
Download meeting times for Peer Support Groups.
These groups meet for mutual support around a ‘special interest’. Trained Peer Support Workers initially lead each group, members are encouraged to meet for socialisation and educational opportunities. These self-help groups are active throughout Victoria and meet from February through to December.
Enquiries and referral to any of these groups must be made through program staff.
