NISA/Northern Initiative for Social Action

NISA/Northern Initiative for Social Action In all that we do we aim to offer a space for Being, Belonging, and Becoming. Being: a basic acceptance of oneself; not having to apologize for one's existence.

NISA is a peer-run, recovery-oriented mental health organization located in downtown Sudbury which offers peer support along with active living, and creative and skill development programming. Belonging: having other people to relate to; being part of a group; having 'family'. Becoming: developing new skills and pathways in life. We at NISA feel we have much to offer to the process of mental healt

h reform. We have a working model for organization, cooperation, and community involvement. We have acquired experience, and a knowledge base which we have documented and shared with others both in Ontario and internationally.

We are excited to share that a positive change is on the horizon for NISA!

To better align with our regional services and our core identity as a peer support organization, we are transitioning to a brand-new name- Peer Support North.

Peer Support is built on the belief that people who have faced similar challenges can offer unique understanding, hope, and support to one another. It works alongside other mental health, substance use health, and community services to help people build wellness and recovery in ways that are meaningful to them.

Although our name is changing, our dedication to providing impactful peer support services will continue.

Thank you to our community partners, members and supporters for being part of our story so far. We are excited for whatโ€™s ahead!
