Providing training crafted in alignment with the National Standards of Practice set forth by the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC), it is designed to be interactive and engaging for a dynamic learning experience for participants.

Led by individuals with lived experience in mental health challenges and recovery, this training is conducted in partnership with Kim Sunderland, ensuring a deep understanding and empathetic approach. Whether delivered in person or virtually, this training format and curriculum can be tailored to suit the specific needs, audience, and time constraints of your program.

Foundational elements of the training include key topics such as self-awareness, alongside peer support principles including hope, recovery, confidentiality, non-judgment, self-determination, and empowerment. Additionally, participants will gain insights into supportive communication techniques, understanding social determinants of health, understanding individual, structural and societal stigma, navigating crises and addressing the risk of suicide, trauma-informed support, fostering resiliency, and embracing proactive and holistic self-care practices.
