World Mental Health Day
2021-10-10 | Canadian Mental Health Association, 1301 Avenue P North, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, S7L2X1, Canada
Mental Health Care for All: let’s make it a reality
World Mental Health Day was observed for the first time on 10 October 1992. It was started as an annual activity of the World Federation for Mental Health by the then Deputy Secretary General Richard Hunter. (WFMH, 2018)
On World Mental Health Day, 10 October, it will have been more than 18 months since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. In some countries, life is returning to some semblance of normality; in others, rates of transmission and hospital admissions remain high, disrupting the lives of families and communities. In all countries, the pandemic has had a major impact on people’s mental health. Some groups, including health and other frontline workers, students, people living alone, and those with pre-existing mental health conditions, have been particularly affected. (WHO, 2021)
World Mental Health Day presents an opportunity for government leaders, civil society organizations and many others to talk about the steps they are already taking and that they intend to take. But World Mental Health Day is about more than advocacy. It also provides an opportunity to empower people to look after their own mental health and provide support to others. (WHO, 2021)

Million Steps for Mental Health 2022
2022-01-20 - 2022-03-31 | Saskatchewan
Get off the couch and on your feet!
Everyone knows that getting fresh air is great for your mental health. For one Meewasin Trail lover, spending time outdoors is about much more than being outside – it is about building connections in a socially distanced, pandemic world.
Frances has set a goal to walk a million steps on the Meewasin Trail in support of two local community agencies: the Meewasin Valley Authority and the Canadian Mental Health Association, Saskatoon Branch. Her goals are to raise awareness about the links between physical and mental health, highlight the importance of the Meewasin Valley, and raise donations for the non-profits, one step at a time.
As someone who has worked in the mental health field for years, Frances felt compelled to take charge of her own wellness through daily action. Frances notes it is not always easy, and “some days are tougher than others. Knowing I am walking for others gives me hope. With each step we take, we are doing something important for ourselves and those we love. My walks help me feel more grounded and capable of meeting the demands of life during these stressful and anxious times. When I feel better, I can help others feel better. It is one thing I can do to get through the day no matter how I am feeling.”

Bell Let's Talk Day
2022-01-26 | Saskatchewan
On Bell Let’s Talk Day, Bell will donate more towards mental health initiatives in Canada by contributing 5¢ for every applicable text, call, tweet or TikTok video using #BellLetsTalk, social media video view and use of our Facebook frame or Snapchat lens.
Creating positive change and supporting Canada’s mental health

The impact of each interaction on Bell Let’s Talk Day has been felt across the nation. Thank you to all those who continue to speak up about mental illness. Together, we can all play a role in creating positive change.
The Bell Let’s Talk Community Fund will provide grants in the range of $5,000 to $25,000 to projects that improve access to mental health care, supports and services for people in Canada.

In January 2021 we launched the new Bell Let’s Talk Post-Secondary Fund to support Canadian colleges and universities in implementing the National Standard of Canada for Mental Health and Well-Being for Post-Secondary Students.

CMHA Talk Today: Goals for Mental Health
2022-02-05 19:00 | Saskatchewan
Join us on February 5th, 2022 to cheer on the Saskatoon Blades and promote mental health awareness in our community!
#Talk Today is one of the most comprehensive mental health programs for amateur sports in Canada. Its aim is to promote the mental health of young athletes and to spread awareness about the benefits of positive mental health throughout communities across the country.
Originally launched by CMHA Ontario Division in partnership with the OHL in 2014, Talk Today provides an important opportunity to address the mental health needs of athletes across the province and across Canada. This program has become a valuable platform for CMHA branches, teams and individual players to encourage open discussion about mental health within the hockey community and the broader public.
This year as part of the Talk Today program’s partnership with RE/MAX and the WHL, teams
across the league can help raise awareness about mental health. As COVID-19 continues to
have a significant impact on the rising mental health challenges across the country, teams
across the WHL can share some helpful tips to help fans reduce their anxiety, stress, and worry
during this difficult period.
We are excited to announce that a portion of the proceeds collected from the 50/50 tickets on February 5th, 2022 will be donated to the Canadian Mental Health Association Saskatoon Branch.
We are grateful for the support of Remax, WHL and the Saskatoon Blades for their commitment to the mental health of our community!

Pink Shirt Day
2022-02-23 | Saskatchewan
Anti-Bullying Day is a day when people wear a pink shirt to symbolise a stand against bullying, an idea that originated in Canada. Pink Shirt Day started because two boys chose to do something about bullying rather than stand by and watch it happen. Now the movement is worldwide, educating and inspiring others to stand together and take action against violence and bullying.
Bullying is a major problem in our schools, workplaces, homes, and online, Pink Shirt Day aims to raise awareness of these issues, as well as raise funds to support programs that foster children’s healthy self-esteem.

WHAT IS BULLYING?
Bullying is a form of aggression where there is a power imbalance; the person doing the bullying has power over the person being victimized. In additional to any physical trauma incurred, bullying can result in serious emotional problems, including anxiety, low self-esteem, or depression.

TYPES OF BULLYING
Physical bullying: using physical force or aggression against another person (e.g., hitting)
Verbal bullying: using words to verbally attack someone (e.g., name-calling)
Social/relational bullying: trying to hurt someone through excluding them, spreading rumours or ignoring them (e.g., gossiping)
Cyberbullying: using electronic media to threaten, embarrass, intimidate, or exclude someone, or to damage their reputation (e.g., sending threatening text messages).

International Women's Day
2022-03-08 | Saskatchewan
International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.

Imagine a gender equal world.
A world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination.
A world that is diverse, equitable, and inclusive.
A world where difference is valued and celebrated.
Together we can forge women’s equality.

International Women’s Day (IWD) has been observed since the early 1900’s – a time of great expansion and turbulence in the industrialized world that saw booming population growth and the rise of radical ideologies.
The world has witnessed a significant change and attitudinal shift in both women’s and society’s thoughts about women’s equality and emancipation. Many from a younger generation may feel that ‘all the battles have been won for women’ while many feminists from the 1970’s know only too well the longevity and ingrained complexity of patriarchy. With more women in the boardroom, greater equality in legislative rights, and an increased critical mass of women’s visibility as impressive role models in every aspect of life, one could think that women have gained true equality. The unfortunate fact is that women are still not paid equally to that of their male counterparts, women still are not present in equal numbers in business or politics, and globally women’s education, health and the violence against them is worse than that of men. However, great improvements have been made. We do have female astronauts and prime ministers, school girls are welcomed into university, women can work and have a family, women have real choices.
Event Information
What is happening in Canada?
The Government of Canada’s theme for International Women’s Day (IWD) 2022 is Women Inspiring Women.
It celebrates all the women and girls who inspire us by demonstrating leadership in the choices they make in their day-to-day lives to contribute to the social, economic, cultural, and political spheres. In Canada, unlike in many other countries, women are free to study and be leaders in the field they choose, care and provide for their family, express who they are, and fight for their beliefs.
