Connect

This conversation saves lives

5 out of 5 people have mental health and it is just as important as our physical health. Yet conversations around our mental health are often cut short because they are uncomfortable and taboo.

Let’s open conversations around mental health and work to reduce the stigma surrounding mental health.

Let’s learn how to ask, “Are you thinking about suicide?” and how to say, “I can help.” Our workshops can help you start the conversation.

Connect builds awareness through public education. It is designed to “Connect people with knowledge and tools to save lives” through presentations, workshop training, and public displays or events.

Presentations aim to educate the public about mental health, coping with stress, and self-care, or provide information on our agency services & programs. Each presentation may range from 1 hour to 3 hours offering valuable information, new coping skills, and effective helping tools.

The connect program can also offer resources to help with Bereavement Support. For more information or to request resources email the coordinator at info@sp-rc.ca or call the office at 780-539-6680.
