Make a Friend, Change a Life - Compeer Hendricks County

What if volunteering was as simple as hanging out with someone who could use a friend?

Our Compeer Program connects amazing volunteers like YOU with individuals living with mental illness to create connections and provide emotional support, helping people feel less isolated and more connected to their community.

How does Compeer work?

It's simple and fun! Our Compeer friends meet an hour each week to spend quality time together.

Do crafts, enjoy a good meal together, catch the latest football game, or simply hang out and chat!

How do I find a friend?

Simply fill out our volunteer application on our website, tell us a little about yourself, and our team will take it from there! We train and match all friends based on their shared interests, values, and personality traits.
