This year, Canadians are getting loud to end wait times, because it takes far too long to get the mental health care we need, when we need it.
Think of “getting loud” as picking up a mental health megaphone. The people we love – and the people we elect – need to hear that mental health is an essential part of health, and of health care. And we just can’t wait anymore.
Please join us and tell everyone to #GETLOUD from May 1st and May 7th.
