January 25 is Bell Let’s Talk Day
Every year in January, Bell Let’s Talk Day encourages a nation-wide dialogue on mental health education, awareness, and funding.
Every day is an opportunity to talk about mental health, support friends and family, and create spaces where people can feel safe, respected, and heard.
You are not alone and there is support available in your community. If you or someone you know needs support, reach out to a trusted friend, family member, teacher, counsellor or Elder. Visit your local health centre for confidential mental health and addictions support.
