Peer-Led Programs
RSL Queensland has partnered with several organisations to offer RSL Peer-Led Programs – learning, inspiring and healing experiences that offer proven health benefits. From respite and connection to active experiences and recovery programs, there’s something for everyone.
Renew your wellbeing, guided by people like you
RSL Peer-Led Programs offer health and wellbeing support for veterans and their families, guided by others with similar experiences.
From wellness and emotional healing to active experiences and family connection, there’s a wide range of opportunities to learn, grow, heal and bond with others who’ve walked the same path.
Each program is underpinned by evidence and delivers real, measurable health and wellbeing benefits.
