Hats On for Mental Health
Every year the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) dedicates a week in May to raise awareness of Mental Health. This year Mental Health Week will run May 6 -10, and Hats On! Mental Health Day will take place on May 8. Albertans are invited to wear a hat to raise awareness of the importance of good mental health. Participating schools will relax their hat rules and encourage students and teachers to build understanding by wearing hats to school. Students will also participate in a coordinated lesson on understanding mental health and the importance of removing the stigma associated with mental illnesses.
Summit Presentation - Center for Youth Resilience
Summit was designed and built to provide mental health services for children and youth. The center offers therapeutic support through a day hospital and community-based treatment. It also provides walk-in services for anyone under the age of 18 and their family who would like to speak to a counsellor.
The Summit is holding a special presentation on Wednesday May 22, 2024
Have a wonderful weekend as a family!
We look forward to welcoming your children back for a full week of learning,
Laureen
