Compeer - Our Friends
Our friends are creative, vibrant men and women who are dealing with a variety of mental illnesses. Our friends are experiencing symptoms of bi-polar, depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, etc. Their illness has caused them to have feelings of loneliness, isolation, and seclusion. Each friend has a variety of unique talents ranging from artistry to mathematics.

How to become a friend of the Compeer program?
Therapists or mental health professionals refer all of our friends to the Compeer Program. Some professionals are aware of Compeer San Diego and will offer the referral. A person may also request a referral packet from Compeer San Diego and take it to his/her doctor, social worker or therapist, and ask them for a referral.
"Compeer means never being trapped alone with my fears.
- A phone call always returned.
- Acceptance without judgment.
- There's always one person who cares."
-Compeer Friend
