Why World Mental Health Day Matters in North York

World Mental Health Day (October 10) brings global attention to challenges faced by millions, including our neighbours in North York. It’s a time to raise awareness, support advocacy, and highlight the importance of accessible mental health services. Together, we can spark conversations that pave the way for healing and resilience—not just today, but every day.

Ways to Get Involved Locally

• Attend a Community Event: Find workshops, lectures, and virtual meetups organized by local clinics, libraries, and advocacy groups. Participating creates a supportive environment for honest discussions.
