Services

Daryl provides a variety of custom services for your organization. Current and previous clients include community-based non-profit organizations, peer groups, substance use treatment centres, harm reduction services, and professional settings including pharmacies and clinics.

Peer Support

Helping others with lived and living experience of hepatitis C in their individual journey, from the perspective and knowledge gained as a person with shared experience. Peer support is demonstrated to have a positive impact on health outcomes.

Hep C 101

Education and knowledge sharing is available in a non-clinical environment, with easy to understand basics of hep C screening/ testing, together with step-by-step guides to accessing care and treatment as required.

Hep C Point of Care Testing

Rapid testing for hep C is simple takes less than 20 minutes, plus pre- and post-test counselling. Training includes some basics of hep C, but pairs well with Hep C 101 for many groups. Testing device kits are provided for free to participating sites.

Peer Mentorship

Mentoring peers in your community to provide peer support to others. More and more community-based organizations are bringing people with lived experience (PWLE) into the care team. This inclusive approach is seen as added value and more often we see it as a prerequisite to secure funding.

We can help you evaluate and provide educational services to expand peer knowledge.
