From the OPP
The OPP is pleased to support the 65th-annual Mental Health Week, advocated by the Canadian Mental Health Association.
This year’s theme is “Get Loud for Mental Health.”
“Getting loud” means speaking up to stop the discrimination and the stigma that often go hand-in-hand with mental illness.
It means taking action and using your voice to raise awareness and build support.
Mental Health Week focuses on mental health and well-being, and encourages people from all walks of life to learn, talk, reflect, and engage others on issues related to mental health and mental illness.
The OPP is committed to improving its response to the mental health needs of its members and the individuals they serve in our communities.
The OPP’s mental health strategy is a comprehensive and integrated approach to support the mental health needs of its members and to respond to people with mental health issues.
The OPP will be sharing messages and encouraging followers to be part of the conversation on social media by using the hashtags #GETLOUD, #MentalHealth, and #MHW2016
