Peer Funding Program

Offered as part of our CMHA Studios, our Participant Funding Program helps promote recovery by helping people experiencing mental illness access education, training and recreation opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.

Examples of some activities the program has helped support include:

The Participant Funding Program committee is made up of a group of dedicated volunteers who meet once a month to oversee the disbursement of funds. Currently the committee consists of people who live with a mental illness, family members, and CMHA and Salmon Arm Mental Health and Addictions representatives. The Consumer Participant Funding Coordinator is responsible for managing and ensuring the administration of the funds.
