Personal Recovery Space (PRS) - Peer Support for Eating Disorders

Child Services, Mental Health - Adult & Senior, and Mental Health - Child & Youth

Provided by Looking Glass Foundation

Offers peer support via a secure digital forum, where individuals seeking recovery from eating disorders or disordered eating can receive dedicated, one-on-one assistance from a team of trained and empathetic volunteers.
Personal Recovery Space allows people to safely share their experiences, struggles, goals and hopes at their own pace and without fear of judgment.

PRS might be right for you if you are:
  • Getting help for the first time
  • Currently waitlisted for other treatment
  • Wishing to augment other forms of treatment
  • Well into recovery but need help with relapse management
  • Seeking a compassionate listener to help sustain recovery

The program is provided at no cost to Canadian residents aged 14 or older.
How It Works:
Participants can access their personal forum space 24/7, and their posts will receive an encouraging, supportive message from one of their two peer mentors within 48 hours. PRS has been described as “a journal that writes back to you” and can continue for as many weeks or months as is helpful. PRS forums are hosted on our secure Program Hub, and participants choose the display name they would like to use in their forum. This can be the individual’s first name or another name of their choosing.
