Mental Health Week: May 7 to 13
The Canadian Mental Health Association’s 67th annual Mental Health Week is encouraging you to #GETLOUD for mental health.
Getting loud means speaking up to stop the discrimination and the stigma that often go hand in hand with mental illness. It means using your voice to raise awareness and build support. For someone at home. For someone at work. For yourself.
The 67th CMHA Mental Health Week will be louder than ever before. Get ready to lift up your mental health megaphone! This year, the focus is ‘mental health is about more than mental illness.’
“It’s more than being happy all the time. It’s about feeling good about who you are, having balance in your life, and managing life’s highs and lows. Everyone deserves to feel well, whatever their mental health experience. And we all need a support system to lean on.”
