The In-Person Peer Support (IPPS) program provides an opportunity for carers to share their experience of being an unpaid carer, learn from others and develop a supportive network.
In-person support groups can provide a sense of empowerment, understanding and reduce feelings of social isolation.
Within these sessions, carers are encouraged to proactively develop self-care skills, build capacity and share their experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
These sessions are designed to be delivered over a series of weeks.
