On May 7th, we ask the community to band together in support of children’s mental health. By ‘band’ we mean, of course, to form a group in support of this important cause. However, we also incline supporters to wear a green headband on May 7th to raise awareness for children’s mental health.
High school students and other youth from across the city have banded together for a series of videos on the importance of youth mental health. Students from Seven Oaks School Division, Division scolaire franco-manitobaine, and the Manitoba Advocate for Children and Youth Ambassador Team have created individual videos on various social media platforms. Topics covered in the videos include:
How the pandemic has changed what it is to be a teenager
The impact of the pandemic on mental health and physical health
Rights to Youth Mental Health- a government responsibility
If your school or classroom would like to participate in May 7th activities, please reach out to see how we can help!
