Initiatives

School Based Activities

Our school based teams have a great time thinking of ways for their peers to learn about mental health. 

​

Some of the great things we do are: 

• Displays that provide resources, ways to get help and information on mental health and well-being

• Activities that are fun, informative and build mental wellness

• Presentations that teach us about mental health and how to take care of ourselves and our friends and family. 

​

Community Involvement

There are lots of people who want to learn about YouthTALK and how mental health concerns impact youth.  To share this information, the regional team offers: 

• Information Booths that offer resources, brochures and guidance on how to get help

• Activities that engage youth to learn and develop skills

• Presentations to enhance the understanding of the importance of mental health and wellness

​

YouthTALK Conference

The YouthTALK Conference has been a yearly event for the past number of years.  We bring together youth from across the region to learn skills and practical knowledge about maintaining mental wellness.  There are a number of community organizations that provide information booths, and we have great experts speak to us as a group or in breakout sessions.
