When it comes to mental health stigma, Ontario youth know it’s time to Change the View.
Young people from across the province were invited by Children’s Mental Health Ontario (CMHO) to make a short video demonstrating how to deconstruct the stigma around mental health issues. The winners were announced at a special event at Queen’s Park this week.
Ranging from sharing personal stories to showcasing poetry, each winner highlights the need to stop the silence around mental health issues.
Check out the winning videos below.
