Description

The Youth Peer Service is a community based, peer support initiative specially for young adults between the ages of 18-30 years old experiencing mental distress. Young adults do not need a referral to come to our groups and can simply turn up.  The service consists of social groups and catchups for young people supporting each other with their mental wellbeing.
