This year’s Mental Health Week is celebrated from May 3 to 9 and this will mark 70 years that the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) has celebrated and hosted Mental Health Week.
The Kenora Rainy River District Mental Health and Addiction Directors Network sponsored a virtual night of comedy with Big Daddy Tazz on Monday night to kick off the week.
Alastair Greig, community support team lead at the CMHA Fort Frances branch, said unfortunately due to the current provincial stay-at-home order, a lot of their planned community outreach is unable to take place.
Greig said they will be reaching out to the community through the delivery of care packages in Fort Frances, Dryden, Kenora and as well as recognizing some of the community partners who are integral to the support of their clients.
