In doing so, individuals can learn new skills and tools to serve them in every day life, including in the workforce.
Moreover, we provide information on how to access the free online BC Peer Support Training Curriculum to those interested in becoming Peer Support Workers themselves. In addition, individuals who don't have access to a computer or who need assistance with navigating the training website can book a time to work on the training in our office with the option of having help available.

YMCA of Southern Interior
The YMCA of Southern Interior BC, formerly the YMCA of Okanagan, is a charity dedicated to strengthening the foundations of community.
Everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, can access vital services for their health and wellbeing at the Y. Whether it is through pre-diabetes programming, cardiac rehabilitation, swim lessons, fitness classes, child care, after-school enrichment programs, career development services, mental health supports or financial assistance, everything we do lays a healthy foundation for individuals and our community as a whole.
Our goal isn’t to fix people‘s challenges. Instead, we provide relevant and responsive programs and supports to help them tap into their own abilities and shape a better future for themselves.
