October 1 to 7th is mental health awareness week.

CMHA has launched an awareness campaign using a drone in Vancouver, BC. For the details see “Drone Disguised as a Cloud Illustrate Important Point About Depression“.

With this CMHA has reminded Canadian of resources offered through CMHA and in BC in particular, including their program “Bounce Back”: see www.bouncebacktoday.ca.

“Bounce Back® is a free, evidence-based program for mild to moderate depression and/or anxiety, which is now available to anyone ages 15 and up. Users work through exercises online, or with a doctor’s referral a Bounce Back coach works with them by phone.”
