The Compeer Program of Suburban Philadelphia has been making new friends
for adults in mental health recovery since 1991. We are one of many programs
in 33 states and Canada. We match caring, trained volunteers with adults in
one-on-one, same-gender, co-equal friendships in Delaware and Montgomery
Counties. We accept written referrals from local mental health care
