Our mission is to amplify peer support as a recognized national best practice across workplaces, communities, and health care systems. By bringing together frontline peer support experts, leaders, and researchers, we will accelerate the adoption of evidence-based, peer support solutions that profoundly transform mental health care delivery in Canada.

We’re looking for dynamic, interactive workshops that share real-world experiences, amplify diverse voices, and equip participants with tools they can put into action. Peer support has earned its credibility as a powerful approach rooted in lived and living experiences in supporting those who struggle. This conference seeks abstracts that will help us explore how to further leverage peer support across health care systems, community, and workplace settings to complement and enhance existing services.

We welcome abstracts that connect with a broad audience; whether you are a peer supporter, researcher, clinician, workplace leader, or policymaker. Our focus is on sharing knowledge, sparking innovation, and building practical skills that advance peer support as a best practice in diverse environments.
