CMHA Mental Health Week 2022
When times are tough, we need to be there for each other. We need to practice empathy. #MentalHealthWeek is May 2-8. Learn how you can #GetReal about how to help at www.mentalhealthweek.ca
Support your own well-being with the WellU Passport Challenge from Student Health and Wellness and Human Resources. Do the activities solo or get your whole household involved. Check off any activities that you complete during Mental Health Week (May 2nd to 8th) and email the form to activities.shcc@lakeheadu.ca by May 9th to be entered into a draw for a wellness prize basket! Open to students, staff and faculty from both campuses.
Learn how to support others with LivingWorks START training, available to Lakehead students, staff and faculty. LivingWorks START is a 90-minute e-learning program that teaches learners to recognize when someone is thinking about suicide and steps to connect them to help. You’ll learn a powerful four-step model to keep someone safe from suicide, and you’ll have a chance to practice it with impactful simulations. Safety resources and support are available throughout the program. Sign up here.
