Compeer
Compeer friends Jonathon & Donald

Check out Compeer upcoming activities
Compeer utilizes volunteer friendship to help people with mental illness feel more connected to their community, feel less loneliness & isolation and to increase their self esteem and independence.
There are many volunteer opportunities available. You can make a difference through 1-1 friendships, phone matches, or by teaching a skill.
- It's fun. You'll be doing recreational activities with a friend; like going to the movies, out to eat, sporting events or even taking a class together.
- It's flexible. It can fit into almost anyone's schedule. It only takes a few hours a month.
- It's rewarding. You'll feel good about yourself.
- It's a great way to meet people.
- It's worthwhile. You'll be making a difference in your community, your world, and in the lives of people recovering from mental illness.
- No experience necessary. All it takes is a caring heart.
There are 168 hours in a week....do you have a couple to share?
