Compeer International Information

Compeer International operates as the central hub that provides support to affiliates spanning across United Ways, as well as in Canada, Australia, and Europe. The Compeer model is based on the understanding that a supportive and caring friend can have a positive influence on an individual’s mental health. We support mental wellness by connecting someone living with a mental health challenge with a caring friend who has similar interests. Compeer’s community-based programs serve youth, adults, older adults, and veterans, through volunteer mentoring and supportive friendship programs globally.
