Peer-to-Peer - An experiential education course for people with a mental illness that provides them with accurate, reliable information and prepares them to deal with the illness and symptoms that they are experiencing. The environment is supportive and non-judgmental, and it provides the group members a chance to relate to others who are going through similar issues.
