Mission Statement
Peer2Peer will train individuals with personal experiences of mental health difficulties to become employable as Personal Assistants to those currently living with mental health problems. Our mission is to enable both the Personal Assistant and the individual availing of the peer support process, to progress positively in their individual stages of the recovery process. This progress is achieved through a sharing of lived experiences, trust and hope.
"Peer support is a system of giving and receiving help founded on the key principles of respect, shared responsibility, and a mutual agreement of what is helpful." - Mead et al. (2001)
