According to the United States’ Center for Disease Control (ᴄᴅᴄ), over half of all people will be diagnosed with a mental illness or disorder at some point in their lifetime. It's therefore highly likely you will meet or have met someone who is struggling with mental health. However, how to best support someone struggling with their mental health is not something most of us are taught in school. If you'd like to gain the skills necessary to best support colleagues, friends, or even strangers, a peer support training program is a good place to start. ​There are a number of programs to choose from. We've put this list together to help you find one that works best for you.
