Help Rotary of Chatham Kent raise funds for the CMHA!
Generally, one in five Canadians live with poor mental health, mental illness or addiction. Now, as we continue to navigate through this global pandemic, it feels more urgent that we all make caring for our mental health a priority as research shows that seven out of ten Canadians are worried that we will face a mental health crisis after this pandemic.
Rotary of Chatham Kent recognizes the importance of mental health and the overall health and well-being of our employees. We strive to promote and support a positive work environment and openly communicate about mental health through education and awareness. As Rotary of Chatham Kent member, we are committed to improving access to mental health services for Canadians to recognize our Social Impact focus. Every strong city needs engaged citizens, and giving back enriches our community and makes many resources available that would not exist otherwise.
