Inspiration Award

 

Congratulations to John Dumais, Peer Support Group volunteer at NSTN for winning a prestigious Inspiration Award from the Centre of Excellence in the UK. He was among hundreds of applicants from around the world.

 

On February 7, 2020, Sarah Durant proudly awarded John Dumais with the prestigious Centre of Excellence award. John completed training to be a peer support volunteer, accomplishing a 98% average on his course work. He has come very far in his treatment, having suffered from severe childhood trauma; the award is particularly meaningful.

 

The Peer Support Group at NSTN provides an opportunity for people that have struggled with Mental Health issues and have participated in treatments, to give back.
