The program is designed to foster community, reduce isolation, and promote mental well-being through shared experiences and mutual support.
“We are thrilled to expand our Peer Support Network to Caledonia,” said Erik Sievers, Executive Director, HVMHC. “This space will serve as a vital resource for those looking to connect with others who understand their journey and can offer meaningful support.”
