Résumé
Pour les personnes souffrant d’un trouble de santé mentale, le soutien de pairs aidants (au sens de personnes s’étant rétablies d’un tel trouble) est d’une grande valeur thérapeutique. Les Alcooliques anonymes (AA) ont été les premiers à le démontrer. Leur approche comporte plusieurs éléments bénéfiques, tel les « meetings », le programme en « 12 étapes », et un élément majeur, le parrainage d’un individu par un pair. Depuis sont apparues des organisations reposant sur des groupes de pairs, et aussi cette nouvelle profession de « pair aidant ». Dans le contexte d’un centre de traitement pour personnes souffrant de troubles psychotiques majeurs, pour lesquels l’espoir est un ingrédient déterminant du rétablissement, l’article présente ici un programme d’entraide s’appuyant principalement sur un parrainage d’un client par un pair et qui, depuis son introduction, commence cliniquement à porter ses fruits. Le programme a aussi une composante de « meetings » et une composante des « 12 étapes ».

Abstract
For people with a mental health disorder, peer support (peer in the sense of people having recovered from such a disorder) is a great therapeutic value. Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) were the first to show this therapeutic value. Their approach has several elements of which, aside from the “meetings” and the program of the “12 steps,” a major element is the sponsorship of an individual by a peer. Since then, appeared organizations based on peer groups, and this new profession of “peer support helper.” In the context of a treatment center for people with severe psychotic disorders for which hope is a key ingredient of recovery.
Objectives The paper present a young new program inspired by the AA 12 steps programme based mainly on sponsorship of a client by a peer for person suffering of a psychotic type of disorder.
Methods A review of literature about the positive effects of sponsorship by a peer in the AA experience, and a description of the new program, its “meetings,” and in particular the ethic code of the participants and its twelves specific steps. Differences between the peer sponsor and the new professional “peer support helper” are presented.
Results The program that, since its introduction, starts to give some anecdotic results. A change or organisational responsibility has led to a pause for a research programme.
Conclusion For the recovery of a severe psychotic condition, there is no unique way to help and this program is one among others.
