Join the green movement during mental health week

For several years, iconic Ontario landmarks such as the CN Tower, Niagara Falls and the Peace Bridge have been lit green during CMHA’s Mental Health week to raise awareness about the importance of mental health.

Now it’s our community’s turn to shine green for Mental Health Week 2017 (May 1 – 7).

CMHA-WECB encourages local businesses, community organizations, churches and other partners to get in on the action.

Participating is easy. Visit www.greenformentalhealth.ca and tell us what you’re going to light green. The webpage will also contain an ongoing list of illuminated buildings.

Last year, more than 70 buildings and landmarks were illuminated (see the full list).

No building to light up? No problem. Individuals can also take part by wearing green or taking pictures near numerous landmarks illuminated green throughout the province and sharing them on social media using the hashtags #GETLOUD and #kidscantwait.

Visit www.greenformentalhealth.ca today and participate this year.
