Do you need to register for this?
During times of stress and mental challenges, it’s important to share what you’re going through; Find a quiet space, sit down, and talk to someone you trust.
If you don’t have a person in your life you can rely on, reach out to a mental health worker or call a support line — we’re here for you.
Taking that first step is courageous. Let’s walk through it together. 🌊

🧡 National Day for Truth and Reconciliation🧡
September 30th marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a time to remember the children who never returned home, honour the Survivors of residential schools, and reflect on the ongoing impact of these tragedies on Indigenous families and communities.
For those who may need mental health support during this time:
- Former residential school students can call 1-866-925-4419 for emotional crisis support.
- The Hope for Wellness Help Line offers 24/7 counselling and crisis intervention for Indigenous peoples across Canada. Call 1-855-242-3310 or visit their online chat.
We encourage everyone to wear orange and join the call for healing and reconciliation. 💬 #EveryChildMatters Together, let’s remember, learn, and take steps towards healing.

We want to extend a huge thank you to Andy and Jessica Lewis for their ongoing support of our CMHA branch! For the fourth year in a row, they’ve hosted their annual golf tournament, Tee-Off For Terry, and we are so grateful to be the recipient of the funds raised.
