1 in 5 Canadians live with a mental illness and many others are affected by mental health concerns. Help end the stigma and separate facts from stereotypes by becoming a speaker for CMHA-WECB.

Take a stand in support of mental health and help end the stigma of mental illness in our community. If you are living with a mental illness, and are far enough along in your recovery journey, or have a loved one living with a mental illness, why not join the Show Your Sole Speakers Bureau?

We are looking for individuals who want to:

• Share their personal stories about living with mental illness or grief journey
• Create a shift in how society perceives mental illness and those affected by it
• Share messages of wellness, hope and recovery

Candidates who are selected will receive:

• Orientation, training and preparation for presentations
• Support before and debriefing after presentations
• Support from a network of peers and professional staff
