Help4HepBC 1-888-411-7578
Launched May 15, 2017 Help4Hep BC is a peer-to-peer helpline where peer navigators work with callers – people living with hep C, family, friends, health care providers, counsellors and other supports – to meet the challenges of hepatitis C head-on. Callers talk one-to-one with a real person (most often someone who’s had hepatitis C themselves) about the specifics of their particular situation. The phone call, support and information are all provided free of charge.
While currently a BC-specific service, the helpline can provide limited support to those living in the rest of Canada.
Please call Help4HepBC anytime at 1 888 411 7578. If a peer navigator isn’t available, you can leave a message. Your information is confidential.
