What is Peer N Peer?

Peer N Peer is a peer-led queer substance use and sexual health program.

Rooted in harm reduction principles, the Peer N Peer project meets people where they are at on their substance use and sexual journeys. 

The Peer N Peer team is here to support 2SLGBTQIA+ people in using substances more safely, improving their sex life, changing how substances affect their sex life, and reducing or abstaining from substance use if that’s their goal. The Peer N Peer team is here to help with whatever goals individuals may have around sexual health and substance use.
