How DO I Join?
How do I join - your Mental Health Support Groups?
The easiest way to join one of our Mental Health Support groups whether it is Online or In-Person is by clicking on Join a support group and then complete our short registration form. You will be given an option of indicating your preference for Online or In-Person and other, if unsure. After you submit the form, you will then receive an acknowledgment email – explaining how we invite and encourage all newcomers to attend one of our weekly Welcome to Grow session which is held online. We see this as your first step whether your preference for support groups is online or In-Person.
This session only lasts approx.. an hour and is run every Monday night at 7:30 online via zoom. This session is aimed for you to get to know us a bit better and more importantly have the opportunity to ask questions. By the end of this short session, we will help you to assess your options and identify a support group, whether online or In-Person that best fits your needs at this present time. If your preference is for In-Person support groups, you will be directed to the nearest local group to you and we will put you in contact with the Area Coordinator of that group.
If you were a member of Grow in the past, and you are looking to re-join us again, please contact your Area Coordinator directly or the regional office in the contact us section.
