Peer Support Centre: We're here to listen.

Outreach

Peer Support volunteers are advocates of reducing mental health stigma, and promoting discussion of a variety of mental health concerns. We host various tabling events across campus to increase awareness of our services and to give students an opportunity to interact with our volunteers. We have collaborated with other student groups and other organizations, such as the Kids Help Phone Committee and Unwind Your Mind, successfully increasing mental health awareness.

If you would like to collaborate with the Peer Support Centre, please contact psc@su.ualberta.ca

Upcoming Events

Peer Support Centre’s virtual webinar: What’s Next? Navigating Uncertainty

The transition out of university life post-graduation can seem like a daunting one, but you're not alone. Post-grad anxiety, dealing with rejection, exploring career paths, re-evaluating your identity as a student, and just "adulting" in general are all activities that students may struggle with. Join the Peer Support Centre for a webinar on navigating life post-graduation with perspectives from guest experts Nicole Rodriguez (UofA Career Centre Advisor), Michelle Gonnasekera (UofA Alumni ASSET Team) and Komal Kumar (NAIT Psychologist).

Guests are invited to attend anonymously if they so choose. Register here and we hope to see you on Zoom on Tuesday, March 21st at 6-7:30pm. The zoom link will be sent a few days prior and on the day of the event. All attendees will have a chance to win one of three $20 e-gift cards of their choosing! Please note that this event is open to UofA staff, students and alumni only. To get in direct contact with us, please email psc@su.ualberta.ca.
