This event is a workshop meant to connect participants with experts who specialize in self care and supporting your own mental health.
About this event
This event is intended to provide attendees with an opportunity to learn from our invited mental health professionals. It will include a 90 minute bilingual workshop that will be give participants tools to support their own mental health.
The ACMP is focused on providing ACB youth with the opportunity to talk about mental health issues openly and safely with mental health professionals. By creating a safe space for ACB students to connect with experts in the field, we hope to empower students by granting them access to tools and resources that allow them to seek help. Additionally, we hope to raise awareness about the wide spectrum of mental health issues that affect the ACB community and reduce the stigmas associated with mental illness. This can include promoting positive behaviours that encourage people to seek help and inspiring others to give more consideration to their own emotional well-being.
To ensure that this discussion is trauma-informed, attentive to stigma, and the information provided is correct, the ACMP will consult with a range of experts from the mental health field.
This meeting will be facilitated by an ACMP member and two mental health experts who are specialized in the topic of self care. These experts will share their experiences and their knowledge regarding how to support your own mental health.
