Schools of Thought - A Provincial Conference on Student Mental Health

No more months-long waitlists.
No more unnecessary handcuffs.
No more stigma, isolation, and preventable losses.
 
Part I of our event is a student mental health advocate bootcamp. It’s intended to provide a shared baseline of background information surrounding student mental health, institutional actors, and best practices for creating systems-level change in Ontario.
 
All registrants will have access to background content produced by summit organizers related to each of the themes covered by our events. These will be emailed directly to registrants. To register, please fill out the form you can find in the "tickets" section of this event.
 
In Part II -- discussion-based “SMH500” strategizing sessions -- student mental health advocates from across the province will come together to discuss longer-term lobbying goals and strategies. Registrants are invited to attend as many discussions as they wish!
 
To RSVP for live learnings and/or register for both parts I and II, please fill out this registration form found in the tickets section. We’ll be following up shortly with more info on how registrants will be able to access static content shortly, and we encourage you to go through all or at least most of it before live learnings so you can optimize your experiences in them!
