Peer support allows people who face mental health problems to benefit from the help and experience of those who have recovered from it. The training of peer helpers, whether professional or voluntary, allows them to enhance their experience and have concrete tools to support the recovery process. The aim of this book is to make this booming function better known to both professionals and those affected by mental disorders. The content of this book is based on French, Swiss, and Quebec experiences - peer support has been developed over the past thirty years in Quebec. This book is intended for all stakeholders in the field of mental health for people affected by mental disorders and for those wishing to train in peer support.
