Grow is Australia’s Leading mutual help program for people with a mental illness.
Joining a Grow Group gives you the opportunity to meet once a week for around two hours to share and find solutions to life’s many challenges with people going through similar experiences. The meetings are run by recovering and trained Grow members who have gone through the program and have volunteered to lead the groups.
There are around 200 groups throughout Australia.
