The Peer Support Program, under the auspices of the Ontario Brain Injury Association, serves to connect a volunteer mentor, who has life experiences involving ABI, with a partner (client who is coping with similar issues). All Peer Mentors are screened and trained prior to being matched with a partner.
Mentoring can take place in person, by telephone, email, or skype, making it accessible for individuals anywhere in Ontario.
For more information about becoming a mentor or partner, contact the BIAPR Support Coordinator at biapr@nexicom.net.
