ConnectGroups is the Peak Body for Peer Support in Western Australia, empowering and sustaining community-based peer Support Groups and the wider community for over 40 years.

Peer Support Groups are groups of people with a common condition, experience, or life adversity, who come together to provide emotional and practical support to one another. They play a key role in the promotion of health and wellbeing, community inclusion, and demonstrate the value of lived experience. As a result of belonging to a peer Support Group, individuals, families, and carers build the knowledge, confidence, and skills to manage their wellbeing and recovery.
As a Peak Body, our members include peer Support Groups and organisations that operate peer Support Groups as part of their service delivery. Through membership, you can access a range of services and resources that will support your Group’s growth and sustainability. There is no cost to become a ConnectGroups member.
ConnectGroups acknowledges the traditional owners of country throughout Western Australia and recognises their continuing connection to land, waters and community. We further acknowledge the traditional carers of the land upon which our office stands, the Whadjuk Noongar people, and pay our respect to them and their cultures; and to Elders past, present, and emerging.
