UW MATES
MATES (Mentor Assistance Through Education and Support) is a counselling-based, one-to-one peer support program offered by the University of Waterloo Undergraduate Student Association (WUSA) . MATES provides services to students who are experiencing social and academic difficulties, low level mental health concerns, and transitional problems into university/Canadian life.
MATES volunteers are required to go through an interview and selection process, extensive training and will always be under professional supervision, assuring our clients of their confidentiality. Services are available to students from all faculties. Students can access our services whether by referral, personally setting up an appointment, or by coming in to the MATES office during our hours of operation.

- everyday stress
