The Yarrow Collective is an independent peer-run organization that seeks to connect peers to one another, education, and resources so that, together as a community, we allow space for mental distress, awaken to the wisdom of our lived experiences, aspire toward healing, amplify our voices, and advocate for meaningful choice and change.
The Yarrow Collective is a group of people who have firsthand, lived experience with psychiatric diagnoses, suicidality, trauma, extreme emotional distress, addiction, recovery, discrimination, and other life-interrupting challenges. Some of us reject labels like “mental illness,” “diagnosis,” and “recovery,” while others of us identify with those words as useful and meaningful to our stories. The Yarrow Collective was born out of a need for alternatives, a need for community, and a need to reclaim our stories in the ways that are meaningful to us.
All that to say, we’ve “been there,” and we’re here to envision and manifest what healing, support, and empowerment can look like through peer-to-peer support, education, and advocacy.
Services include free, weekly Alternatives to Suicide peer support groups for adults, in person in Fort Collins and online. For other groups and events, check our calendar for details.
