Today is Self-Injury Awareness Day.⁠

Self-Injury Awareness Day is a day aimed at removing the stigma around self-harm, encouraging discussions about self-harm, providing support and understanding, and more.

Contact Brant is the Lead Agency for the Urgent Response Service (URS) in the communities of Brant, Haldimand-Norfolk, Hamilton, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Niagara, and Six Nations of the Grand River. ⁠

Children and youth registered with the Ontario Autism Program are eligible for URS when experiencing new or worsening high-risk behaviours. Working with the family and community services, our URS Coordinators develop short-term services and supports to respond rapidly to the specific high-risk need to reduce the risk of harm to the child/youth, others, or property.⁠

Our community information website also lists resources and support for mental health, crisis and emergencies, and more.⁠

Check out the comments for more information on available resources.
