Does this situation sound familiar?
A colleague undergoes cancer surgery, and she receives unprecedented support from her family and friends, complete with flowers, cards and visitors. When she was subsequently treated for depression, everything went coldly silent – not a card, not a flower, not a visitor. When she returned to work, her workmates made it so difficult for her that she eventually quit.
Statement to the Legislature
The Honourable Teresa Piruzza
Minister of Children and Youth Services
Children's Mental Health Week
(May 5 – 11, 2013)
Mr. Speaker, I rise in the House today in recognition of Children's Mental Health Week in Ontario, being observed this week.
This is an opportunity each year to increase awareness of mental health - and its signs - and to decrease the stigma associated with mental illness.
The York Region Anti-Bullying Coalition is a non-profit advocacy organization to assist parents in navigating the complex school system when trying to find answers. They strive for a school system that will foster equality among all students, a mutual respect for one another, and a culture of fairness void of racism and violence. Visit their website for more information on bullying, resources and upcoming community events.
