Community Resources

We all have physical health and we all have mental health. Our mental health impacts how we feel, how we do in school, how we interact with others, and our overall well-being. Knowing when you need support is important. Sometimes, we think we need to talk to someone or need help, but don’t know what to do. You may feel overwhelmed, sad and alone – know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE. If you are worried about how you or someone else is feeling, please speak to a parent, a teacher, a guidance counsellor or another caring adult.
