we can't just will difficult emotions away, but sometimes just being open about our struggles and letting ourselves feel our feelings (as hard that may be) can make them feel a little easier to carry. youthspace.ca is here to listen! graphic by @yumisakugawa💖
From middle school to high school and beyond, our Youth Suicide Prevention program works to start the conversation about mental health early on & ensure our young people know when and how to access support when they need. It's funders like @CityOfVictoria that make this possible!
