Family and Children’s Services here is helping to promote Children’s Mental Health Day today (May 7)—a province-wide campaign to recognize the importance of children’s mental health services.
Statistics show one out of every five children and youths under the age of 19 struggles with emotional, mental, or behavioural difficulties.
Unfortunately, children’s mental health programs are chronically under-funded across the province.
Family and Children’s Services is partnering with McDonald’s, and will be at the restaurant today from 3:30-5:30 p.m. There will be information, promotional giveaways, and McDonald’s coupons available.
We hope to see everyone there to help celebrate and support the importance of children’s mental health.
