In just a few hours a month, you can make a difference in the life of another man who could use a supportive friend. Become a "compeer"! Volunteering can be in-person, by phone, email or texting - or a mix of those. The Compeer program in Chester County, PA, connects a volunteer (age 18 or over) with another adult who may be feeling isolated or sad due to mental health issues. Supportive friendships have been proven to boost self-esteem and ease loneliness for those in mental health recovery. Volunteers receive training to prepare them to meet the person they will volunteer with. Friendship matches are made on the basis of shared interests, geographic location, and other factors.. Individuals requesting a volunteer through the program have been referred to Compeer by a mental health professional. Compeer staff facilitate an introductory meeting and provide ongoing support. Compeer also sponsors occasional group events that bring volunteers and friends together. Learn more by visiting www.compeerchesco.org or calling 610-436-4445.
