For those new to Online Peer Group Chats, each chat session focus on a specific topic and are guided by peer workers with lived experience of mental health issues. Counsellors are in the background to make sure chats are as safe as possible for participants. It is a space for peers to share their story and experiences, and connect with those who are going through something similar.

Peer Group Chats are hosted outside of the forums, using a platform called Chatwee. To join an Online Peer Group, you will need to register for an account with Chatwee. On the night, follow this link and log in to your Chatwee account before the group starts.

You can join our Online Peer Group Chats every Thursday from 7:00-8:30pm (AEST/AEDT).

Check out the FAQs page for more information.

Hey @outlander,

I'm so sorry I didn't see this til now! For future reference, a lot of people go with their forum name, but given the OPGs run on another platform, there is also the option to go with another name if you'd prefer. It is entirely up to you, so long as it fits within the Group Guidelines. I hope that helps, but if you or anyone else has any other questions, please don't hesitate to reach out and ask 😊
