Mental Health Week May 5th to May 11

Happy Mental Health Week Everyone!

To celebrate this year’s mental health week, take some time to reflect on the importance of mental health in every person’s life. Knowledge about mental health problems helps reduce stigma and discrimination: here’s some links to some mental health resources. TVO, in association with CAMH- the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health is celebrating the week with an in depth look at mental health in our society. Here’s a link to their website: http://tvo.org/mentalhealth

TVO and CAMH are celebrating the week by sharing a number of excellent documentaries on mental health. Please watch and share:
