Happy Diwali to those who celebrate!

Known as the Festival of Lights, Diwali is an annual celebration with different meanings and traditions across communities. One theme many celebrations share is the triumph of light over darkness. People may mark the occasion by lighting diyas (small clay oil lamps), decorating their homes, or gathering with family and friends to share a meal and sweets.

Melissa is back at our office today for caregivers that would like to chat about helping their youth cope with mental health struggles.
She can provide personalized guidance on how to best support your youth.

She now has options for caregivers to connect with her either in person or virtually (new!) for a 20-minute timeslot, between 10am-noon.

Feel free to drop in between 9-10am today to put together a free coping skills kit to bring home to their youth, with helpful tools to use to improve mental health and wellness or contact to book an appointment.
