What is a peer supporter ?<\/h4>\n \n\n

A peer supporter is a person who has been diagnosed with breast cancer, who uses their experience and knowledge to support people affected by the disease. The peer supporters who answer callers to the Helpline receive professional training from the Quebec Breast Cancer Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n \n\n\n

\n Accordion<\/span>\n

What is the role of peer supporters ?<\/h4>\n \n\n

Peer supporters provide active listening, guidance through the healthcare network, referrals to appropriate Foundation resources and general information about breast cancer, which does not replace the recommendations of a healthcare professional.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n \n\n\n

\n Accordion<\/span>\n

Are there other forms of a peer support ?<\/h4>\n \n\n

To talk to someone else who has been through this, you can join one of our online support communities: the Parlons cancer du sein<\/a> and Club stade 4<\/a> private Facebook groups.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n \n\n\n
