Mental Health Week 2009

CMHA Mental Health Week 2009 - May 4 -10

This year's mental health week focuses on the theme of mental health and the economy, with  the slogan "Now more than ever:  Invest in yourself."

Desjardin Financial Security, which sponsors the national awareness week, has revealed results from their "Health is Cool" survey, finding that 44% of Canadians are stressed about their finances.  Current problems with the economy and employment are increasing people's concern and anxiety over their jobs, housing income, and cost o liveing.  Mental Health Week will offer people tips on creating supportive relationships, reaching out to neighbours, friends, coworkers and family, staying fit and healthy through exercise and a proper diet, and seeking expert advice if faced with financial challenges.
