Donate to CMHA - Canadian Mental Health Association Calgary Region
My first full marathon!! This has been a stretch goal in the back of my mind for many years. After completing multiple half marathons, I’ve convinced myself it’s finally time to go for it!
Running & fitness has always been a key part of my life that has many benefits, including mental well being. I chose the CMHA to fundraise for as I believe strongly in the benefits that increased mental health supports brings.
Thanks to all my friends & fam for the support! It is deeply appreciated. Stay kind ❤️
Description
It is Canadian Mental Health Association – Calgary Region’s (CMHA Calgary) mission to be a leader in reducing the impact of mental illness and addiction in community. For more than 60 years, we have provided a person and family centered integrated service model focused on early intervention and prevention of a mental health or substance use concern that delivers a measurable increase in community resiliency.
Our long standing belief is that recovery is possible. Our recovery model focuses on wellness by shifting the emphasis from a narrow, limiting view of a diagnosis, towards empowering individuals, building their strengths, resiliency and hope for a meaningful life. This recovery is demonstrated in the advancement of Peer Support where individuals with personal experience of a mental health or substance use concern are trained to support others through shared understanding and hope.
