Life Quest Society is a non-profit and social enterprise offering peer support education and services to organizations and communities, rooted in lived experience, recovery, and empowerment. By contracting trained Peer Support Workers we aim to bridge gaps in mental health, substance use, and recovery services while fostering leadership, accountability, and wellness within communities themselves.
