‼️It’s that time again‼️

We rely on individual support to meet communal needs - it’s takes a community to support our community!

Peer Support Space is hosting our third annual fundraiser Let’s Take a Mental Health Breakfast on April 29th from 8:15AM-10AM at the Winter Park Center for Health and Wellbeing. Join us for a full breakfast, good company, powerful run of show, Photo Booth, silent auction, and more!

It will be a special morning and an important one. Right now, more than ever, we need to diversify our funding sources and build an emergency fund to sustain our care work. Every bit matters!

Be a part of revolutionizing our mental health system with solutions created and led by us, for us. The past seven years of our lived experience centered advocacy, community gatherings, and 1:1 peer support have been a game changer in Central Florida and beyond. We can’t wait to celebrate the power of lived experience with you!

We’re so excited to share more details on our 3rd Annual Let’s Take a Mental Health Break-fast with you soon. 🥰

We’re not your regular cancer support group. We’re a cool cancer support group! Truthfully, we are probably more sad, angry, dissociated, frustrated, and other arrays of big feelings than “cool” BUT we ARE relatable!

We meet on the 3rd Tuesday of each month (starting February 2026) from 2PM-3PM at Foundation for a Healthier West Orange (1200 E. Plant St. Ste. 200., Winter Garden, FL 34787). Please note that in March 2026 we will be meeting alternatively that month on March 10th!

With the support of those that attend our space, we are creating a nonjudgemental space where those with cancer can laugh and cry while we vent our grievances and hold space for one another. We are a FREE space that centers younger adults currently with or that have had cancer ages 18-45, while welcoming adults of all ages with lived experience of currently having or previously having had cancer.

Peer-led support groups, or what we call community gatherings, are nonclinical spaces where we do not seek to fix, analyze or pathologize one another. We believe that each person has a different set of things that work for them and center supporting somebody in the way that they want to be supported and holding back projecting that what works for us is what works for others.

While this space is directly for those that have or have had cancer themselves, we do welcome a support person if helpful for the participant.

If you are a loved one of somebody with or that has had cancer, thank you so much for having lots of love for one of our friends! Currently, this space is not a space for loved ones of those with cancer unless you are joining to support an attendee on their request. With that said, please feel welcomed to email us and we are happy to resource brainstorm with you.

For questions, accessibility needs, to share ways we can help you feel welcome, or to just let out a big cancer-fueled “AHHHHHHHHHHH!” you want to place somewhere - please email Sabra at sabrastarrphoto@gmail.com

If you are interested in donating towards or sponsoring this space, please email Yasmin at yasmin@peersupportspace.org

As we reflect back on 2025 we have deep gratitude for all who make up our chosen family! From those who have attended our spaces once or twice, to those who stop by a tabling event to share a message of hope, to our team, to our donors, to our community partners, to our regulars at the casita or community gatherings - thank you for all the memories!

In 2025 we laughed and cried together. It was quite the year but we made it through and gathered many pockets of joy and memories along the way.

Wishing you all the good stuff and things this new year and every day. Love you pal. 🫶🏽

Our Co-Founder an Executive Director, Yasmin Flasterstein, is working towards slowly transitioning out of her current role and we’re calling on the community to help inform us as we intentionally seek new leadership.

If wanted, we invite you to take our communal input survey and to reflect with us on Peer Support Space’s past, present and future. Share as little or as much as you would like! This work takes a community and we’re so grateful to have you in ours.

✨ Take our survey at tinyurl.com/nextchapterinput ✨
