A local peer-to-peer support group hopes to help people when they have mental health trouble.
The Peer-to-Peer support group hosted a workshop last Wednesday to explain what they do and to encourage people to join.
Part of the presentation included a video by Michael Landsberg, who spoke in North Battleford last March.
Ean Kasper is an organizer who has received peer-to-peer training. Kasper said the support group has similarities with AA meetings. Sessions feature complete confidentiality, and sharing is encouraged but not required.
Kasper said mental health matters and coping with problems are discussed topics at meetings.
The Peer-to-Peer support group meets Thursday mornings at 9:30 a.m. in the basement of the Canadian Mental Health Association building in North Battleford, located at 1602-103rd Street.
