Compeer (companion+peer) is an award-winning volunteer program that uses the power of friendship to help people in mental health recovery live happier, more satisfying lives by reducing social isolation and increasing the likelihood of community integration. The Compeer program is a complement to traditional therapy. Compeer recruits, screens and matches volunteers with people experiencing emotional issues or recovering from mental illness. A Compeer friendship can make a substantial improvement in a participant's self-worth, a key ingredient in bringing a person back into the mainstream of community life. Without sensitive, caring volunteers and some financial assistance to recruit, train and match them with consumers, Compeer would not exist.
