Hi everyone!

On Thursday 21st of September 2023, we will be holding a Peer Group Chat on the topic of The Place of Pride.

Pride can be really powerful, but at the same time is sometimes thought of as a bad thing. Join us to unpack the different experiences we may have with pride, and when pride may actually be a good thing. 

The event start times across Australia are below:

Western Australia: 5pm 
Northern Territory & South Australia: 6:30pm 

Queensland, New South Wales, Australian Capital Territory, Victoria & Tasmania: 7pm

For anyone unfamiliar with Peer Group Chats, each focuses on a specific topic and is guided by Peer Workers with lived experience of mental health issues and recovery, &/or caring for someone with complex mental health. A counsellor is also present as a moderator to help ensure a safe environment for individuals and the group. It is a space for us as peers to share our stories and experiences, and connect with those who are going through something similar. 

Anyone is welcome to join! Tagging some members who may be interested below:

Sounds like a great discussion topic. I'll look forward to reading the transcript. I would love to join you, but I am now studying online at that time for the next 8 months or so. Keep up the great work!
