“Life isn’t meant to move in a perfectly straight line. We all stumble, pause, and find ourselves starting over—and that isn’t a setback. It’s a sign of resilience."

In our latest free online learning course, we explore the power of embracing vulnerability — not as a risk, but as a superpower.

Showing up as ourselves, even when it’s uncomfortable, opens the door to deeper connection, real growth, and the courage to try again.

If you’re ready to rediscover your strength, lean into your courage, and begin again with purpose, then this course is for you.

Approximately one in five youth struggles with mental health.

In Canada, su***de is the second-leading cause of death among youth and young adults between 15-34 years.

When it comes to mental illness, youth is a critical period: most people living with a mental illness see their symptoms begin before age 18.

This Friday is our annual game with Guelph Storm Hockey Club. The Talk Today event aims to combat stigma by starting a conversation around mental health and encouraging people to seek help when they need it.

Come by and say hello if you're at the game on Friday night!

January marks the return of —a time when Canadians unite around a shared commitment: to talk openly about mental health and support those who are struggling.

This year’s theme, “Taking a Moment for Mental Health,” reminds us to pause, reflect, and give our wellbeing the attention it deserves.

At first glance, taking a moment may sound small—but small actions have power:

✅ A moment to check in with ourselves.

✅ A moment to reach out to someone who might be carrying more than they show.

✅ A moment to breathe, reset, and reconnect.

Together, these moments create stronger mental health for individuals and communities alike.
