CMHA Mental Health Weeks run May 2-8, 2022

You can register for the virtual kick-off event taking place Monday at noon. Join Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, Michael Landsberg, and special guests for a riveting conversation about why empathy matters. Or you can tune in live on CMHA National Facebook or click here to register Webinar Registration – Zoom

These past two years more than ever have shown us as individuals that we have the ability to imagine what life is like for someone else. The important piece in doing so is we need to also recognize that sharing in the individual feelings doesn’t mean we also jump in to fix it.

Empathy is something you can learn if it doesn’t come naturally to you. #GetReal on how to help. “You don’t have to agree to understand, and you don’t have to fix it to help.” www.cmha.ca.

Show us your support and celebrate Mental Health Week by Changing Your Zoom /Teams Background.
