Volunteer To Be A Friend

Compeer matches adults who are living with mental illness with community volunteers to create intentional friendships.

As a volunteer you will connect with your friend on a regular basis at mutually convenient times to share activities you both enjoy, such as movies, sports, going for walks in good weather, shopping or coffee and a chat, etc.

You and your new friend will spend about an hour together once a week (or 2 hours every two weeks). We need volunteers across the adult age and gender spectrum. Training, ongoing education and support are provided by the Compeer staff.

Being a Compeer friend is a fun, fullfilling and wonderful way to make the world a better place!
