Prioritizing Mental Health for Enhanced Well-being…

How do you nurture your mental well-being?

To foster a better understanding of mental health among the African descent, Africa Center, in collaboration with the Canadian Mental Health Association – Edmonton (CMHA), organized a discussion session on October 3, 2023, at Africa Center’s premises.

The primary objective of this gathering was to facilitate the exchange of experiences and information, with a focus on identifying service gaps and community needs. The exploration of these needs was carried out through a series of thought-provoking questions.

This session proved to be a rich and enlightening dialogue among diverse communities. Participants had the opportunity to share their personal perspectives on what mental health means to them and their communities.

They discussed strategies for supporting the mental well-being of others, explored various barriers to accessing mental health assistance, and articulated their preferences for accessing such support. Community members interested in becoming Volunteer Ambassadors will play a vital role in disseminating information within their respective communities.
