Helping Ourselves through Peer Support & Employment

WELCOME TO H.O.P.E.

Registration is NOW OPEN!

Walk for Mental Health. Walk for Change.

Join us for our 8th Annual Walk for HOPE! A fun-filled half day of walking, laughter, community connection, and mental health awareness!

Choose the 5 km or 1 km route on the day of the walk. Whichever distance you choose, you’ll be showing your support as a mental health ally while helping raise vital funds for H.O.P.E.’s Saturday & Sunday Drop-In Peer Programs.

Every step makes a difference. Every pledge helps provide hope, connection, and peer support.

H.O.P.E. is an organization run by and for consumers of mental health services in Brant County. We work collaboratively with our community to help people in their recovery by providing meaningful employment, peer support and advocacy.  H.O.P.E receives some funding from Ontario Health for operating costs . However, we rely solely on donations and grants to provide programs and services.

We want to hear from you!

Please take a few minutes to complete our Recovery College Community Survey and let us know what you think. Your opinions, ideas, and feedback matter to us and will help shape future programs and opportunities in our community.

Thank you for sharing your valuable input and for taking the time to help us create something meaningful together.

Donations can also be made via e-transfer to helping@hopebrant.ca
