Mental Health Awareness Week
MaY 5, 2024
As Mental Health Awareness Week approaches, running from May 6th to 12th, 2024, we want to take a moment to acknowledge the significance of this observance. In today's society, the importance of mental health awareness cannot be overstated. It affects everyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. By acknowledging Mental Health Awareness Week, we aim to reduce stigma, increase understanding, and foster a supportive environment where individuals feel safe to seek help and support.
At NABET 700-M Unifor, we recognize mental health's vital role in overall well-being. By promoting mental health awareness, we build healthier, more resilient communities.
During Mental Health Awareness Week, we encourage you to engage in activities promoting mental wellness, whether participating in events, sharing resources, or starting conversations.
This year's focus for #MentalHealthWeek is compassion. The Canadian Mental Health Association Toolkit can be found by clicking HERE.
As members of NABET 700-M UNIFOR, you have several support mechanisms available through the various employee assistance programs (EAPs) offered by HumanaCare and ALAViDA. We encourage you to see what each offers if you require assistance.
