Our Closed Peer Support Group is for parents seeking peer support in a group setting. The aim of the group is for peers to provide and receive support around Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs), challenges with parenting and other challenges that present in the perinatal period. PWO facilitates a group that is welcoming, non-judgmental, and compassionate in order to be able to share authentically about our struggles. All peer support groups are co-facilitated by 2 Peer Support Volunteers.
This group will run for 6 consecutive weeks, on Wednesday from 10:00 - 11:00am.
Dates include: January 18th, 25th, February 1st, and 8th, 15th, and 22nd.
