Increasingly, organizations are discovering that peer support — connecting employees through shared experience — is transforming the culture of care inside Canada’s workplaces.

Join Mental Health Innovations and a distinguished panel of national leaders as they explore how corporate Canada can play a leadership role in advancing peer support, both internally and through national initiatives like the 2026 Power of Peer Support Conference.
