Peer Support

We offer a number of regular peer support groups dedicated to providing hope, validation and information through shared experience of living with borderline personality disorder (BPD).

All of our groups are facilitated by trained volunteer peer support facilitators and are free to access on a drop-in basis - you simply arrive a few minutes before the start time!

We welcome anyone living with BPD, whether they have a formal diagnosis, self-identify with BPD, or do not have a diagnosis. We also welcome family members, partners, friends, clinicians, carers, and other support persons, whether or not they attend with the person they support.

If you are interested in supporting our work by becoming a volunteer BPD Peer Support Facilitator, head over to our Volunteer Opportunities webpage to learn more about the vital work our volunteers do and to find out how you can join the team.
We are particularly interested in hearing from potential new volunteers in the regions listed above that currently have a temporarily closed BPD Peer Support Group (Vancouver, Okanagan - Kelowna, and Nanaimo).
We welcome expressions of interest from community members across British Columbia who might be interested in opening a new BPD Peer Support Group in their region.
If you are interested in opening a new group in your region, please write to our Volunteer Manager who can advise you of the process and next steps.
