CMHA supports Pink Shirt Day

On February 23, individuals and organizations across the country will come together to celebrate Pink Shirt Day, an annual anti-bullying campaign.

Bullying is a form of aggression where there is a power imbalance; the person doing the bullying has power over the person being victimized. In additional to any physical trauma incurred, bullying can result in mental health issues, including anxiety, low self-esteem, or depression. Pink Shirt Day aims to raise awareness of these issues, as well as raise funds to support programs that foster children’s healthy self-esteem.

CMHA-WECB is a lead partner in the development of a Youth Wellness Hub. Learn more at www.youthubyqg.com.

The campaign theme this year is to “Lift each other up” and have greater acceptance, respect, and inclusion for everyone. For more information on anti-bullying resources, visit pinkshirtday.ca.
