On this week’s episode we invite Rachel Tolkin of the Canadian Mental Health Association to dysh on her lived experience and the organization. Rachel shares her experience with depression and anxiety and the lack of support at home due to her parent’s hesitation to involve her in the system. She talks about CMHA which has a nationwide reach with over 330 sites. She tells us about the resources CMHA provides the communities they serve and some of the interesting fundraising initiatives they have.
