History
The Peer Support Centre (PSC) was founded in Fall 2013 by a group of McGill students with the support of McGill’s professional mental health services. With a vision to make support services more accessible at McGill, they conducted research and talked to similar programs elsewhere in Canada. After a semester of hard work, the PSC opened its doors in Winter 2014. Since then, the PSC has expanded considerably, by becoming a Students’ Society of McGill University (SSMU) service, partnering with McGill Mental Health Services and securing a permanent location.
