Hats on for mental health

May 29, 2012

Students attending St. Elizabeth Seton School, in Red Deer, wore hats on Hats on for Mental Health Day, May 9. The provincewide event is a coordinated awareness day focused on raising awareness of issues related to mental health.

In 2009, the Alberta Teachers’ Association partnered with the Alberta Division of the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) and Global Television to create Healthy Minds, Bright Futures. The program aims to increase awareness of the mental health needs of children and youth and decrease the stigmatization often associated with mental illness.
