Apply to be a peer supporter

Our peer supporters are trusted journalists and news professionals trained to listen.

They volunteer an hour or two each month to chat confidentially with colleagues struggling with work-related stress, burnout and mental health challenges.

They listen, help problem solve, and refer people to professional counselling and services when needed.

CAJ is now accepting applications for 20 volunteer positions to be trained for our CNIPS pilot, to launch in May of 2025. We will also keep a waitlist in anticipation of accepting more volunteers as CNIPS expands in 2026.
