March Break can bring big feelings, changes in routine, and added stress for children, youth, and caregivers.
At George Hull Centre for Children and Families, we’re here to support mental health beyond the school year — with services that help kids and families build coping skills, connection, and resilience.
Whether it’s creating space to talk, keeping routines flexible, or reaching out for support when things feel overwhelming, small steps can make a big difference this week.

March Break can be a time for rest, connection, and fun — but it can also bring stress for some families.
As routines change, it’s a good moment to:
• Check in with children and youth
• Notice changes in mood or behaviour
• Make space for rest, play, and conversation
Mental health support doesn’t pause for school breaks — and neither does the need for care and connection.

This transformative two-day gathering is devoted exclusively to child trauma — a rare and urgently needed focus in today’s conference landscape. Bringing together clinicians, researchers, educators, policymakers, leaders, and families, the conference creates space for learning, reflection, and meaningful connection.
This year’s keynote will be delivered by Dr. Ed Tronick, alongside leading voices including Dr. Patricia Vickers, Dr. Elizabeth Warner, Dr. Ed Hamlin, and Dr. Ruth Lanius.
Grounded in compassion and respectful dialogue, this gathering blends deep content with authentic connection — from ceremonial openings to curated networking and rich Q&A sessions.
We’re proud to be part of a community advancing more effective, compassionate, and equitable trauma care for children and families.

On International Women’s Day, we recognize the women and girls whose voices, leadership, and resilience shape our communities — and the work still needed to ensure equity in mental health care.
Women and girls often carry disproportionate caregiving, emotional labour, and systemic barriers that affect mental well-being across generations.
Today, we celebrate progress and recommit to care that is equitable, inclusive, and responsive. đź’ś
