Kidney Connect Peer Support Program

One-on-One Support
Peer support volunteers help many people each year, and participants consistently report that the encouragement and guidance they receive plays an important role in adapting to life with kidney disease. Based on the information you provide, we will match you with a trained volunteer whose experiences and background best align with your needs. The Peer Support Mentoring Program can be reached by phone, email, or through the online form.

Peer Engagement Groups
Groups meet virtually by phone or through video-conferencing and are led by trained peers who live with kidney disease or are care partners. Open groups meet monthly and discuss a variety of topics of interest to the participants. Specific sessions are available for transplant recipients, those on home dialysis, young adults, pediatric patients and care partners, people living with reduced kidney function, PKD, and more. Review the calendar for all upcoming sessions.

Pre-registration is required for the meetings via email peersupport@kidney.ca or by phone at 1-866-390-7337. Once you’ve registered, guidelines and call details will be provided to access the meeting.
