WHAT NEXT! Peer Support Program
What Next! Peer Support Drop-in Centre is a membership-driven
meeting place where people recovering from mental health or
mental health and addiction issues can share with others and
gain social emotion support. Although the program has existed
for ten years, it has recently partnered with the CMHA Toronto
to expand its services to four days week to
- Promote wellness and recovery through opportunities for
social support
- Offer members personal growth through recreational and
educational activities
- Empower members to participate and assume leadership in
the program's operation and development
- Work collaboratively with other community mental health
providers to build its service capacity while maintaining
autonomy as a peer initiative
What Next! Operates Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday
from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Wednesdays from 10:00 a.m.
to 6:00 p.m. for administration, advocacy, planning and telephone
support.
