Applications for the Support, Operations, and Equity & Accessibility branches of PSC are now open! Please read the application guide; it can be found here.
PEER SUPPORTERS
The PSC’s peer supporters are diverse student volunteers committed to providing empathetic, empowering, and non-judgmental peer support and referrals to the McGill student community. We strive to choose peer supporters from all walks of life, ranging from first years to graduate students, psychology majors to engineering majors, and those with previous peer support experience to those without.
Applications for Peer Supporters are now open! Please read the application guide; it can be found here. Apply at this link!
PSC RESEARCH INITIATIVE
The PSC is launching a research initiative this year to better pinpoint how we can improve our services (and on-campus mental health services in general) and we want to hear from you! If you are a McGill student and would like to get involved, please fill out our survey below. The survey will be completely anonymous, however, if you are interested in contributing further to our research, we are also recruiting people to join our focus group. If you’d like to participate, please leave your email at the end of the form!

Active Listening Techniques Quiz: How familiar are you with active listening?
Are you intrigued to apply for a volunteer position with the PSC but unsure what “active listening” entails? Take this quiz and see!
You might know more than you think! No matter how you do, if learning more and practicing active listening interests you, consider applying as a peer supporter with the PSC! No past training or experience is necessary, and all peer supporters complete 40+ hours of training together to learn more about active listening and peer support.
