Events

Programs & Education

Peer Links are part of our MS Connect services, offering short-term online programs designed to help you learn and connect through shared experiences.

Over three or four weekly sessions (each 90-minutes), a peer support coordinator facilitates discussions with guest speakers who share information on key topics. These sessions help prompt conversation, reflection and learning among participants.

If you’re new to peer support, have an interest in a particular topic or can’t commit to an ongoing group, Peer Links are a great option. We send out details of each Peer Link to our registered clients by email.

If you’re not sure whether you’re registered, or you'd like to find out about upcoming Peer Links, reach out to our MS Connect team for help.

Examples of Peer Link topics include:
