Come and learn about the Wellness in a Box Project. Our presenters will be: Shruti Mistry; Zoie Kaprielian-Seferian and Sarah Sollors of the Rotaract Club of Ottawa. 

 

Wellness in a Box is a 2-day mental health awareness workshop based on the Boston Children's Hospital "Break Free From Depression" curriculum. The objective of the workshop is reduce the Stigma around mental health, making it OK to talk about it and to reach out for help when needed. It also includes coping strategies and resources for general mental health struggles. The workshops are also used as a peer leadership opportunity as youth/students can become trainers and deliver the workshop material after participating in the workshop and taking the on-line training.
