PEER SUPPORT

Getting Better Together: Scottish Rite's Peer Support Program

At Scottish Rite for Children, we don’t just get better, we get better together. Peer support is a process through which people who share common experiences or face similar challenges come together as equals to give and receive support and knowledge. Scottish Rite offers family-to-family support between families whose children:

  • have the same diagnosis
  • are undergoing a surgical procedure
  • are following the same treatment
