Mental Health Week

The Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA)’s annual 2022 Mental Health Week is May 2-8, 2022. This social change campaign aims to shift attitudes and perceptions about mental health.

The 2022 theme is the importance of empathy. When someone is struggling, people tend to offer solutions—or judgment—when what is needed most is empathy. Empathy is the ability to understand how someone feels because you can imagine what it is like to be them and understanding why they may be feeling what they’re feeling.

Empathy is a skill that can be learned, and it’s fundamental to successful relationships at home and in the workplace.

CMHA’s website, MentalHealthWeek.ca, offers practical advice, articles, and information
to help you #GetReal about how to really help.
