Peer Connectors provide individualized, 1:1 support to you.

Peer Connectors have extensive lived experience in adoption, kinship, customary care, and foster care. Additionally, they receive specialized training in supporting peer relationships and community connections. Many also bring related professional learning in social work, counselling, complex needs, and mental health to their abilities as peer support connectors.

They will help you:

  • Complete a thorough intake with all new community parents/caregivers, to understand a family’s unique needs.

  • Attend in-person and virtual support groups.

  • Identify the unique needs of families including local/relevant therapeutic, educational, respite and professional resources.

  • Match families, for ongoing peer support, with a buddy or mentor.

  • Advocate with, and for, parents, caregivers and families.

To access this free support, you must request to join the Peer to Peer Network. Choice from one of the groups below to register.

We are here to support you,

wherever you are in your journey.
