At Youth Mental Health Canada (YMHC), we’re committed to supporting student mental health through practical, accessible resources. We’re pleased to announce that we are currently offering **free wellness-focused workshops** for schools in Hamilton, Ontario, centered around creating Youth Wellness Action Plans (YWAPs).

## Supporting Student Mental Health and Well-being

In today’s world, supporting student mental health and well-being is more important than ever. Youth Wellness Action Plans are personalized, proactive tools that help students:

-   Recognize what keeps them well
-   Identify triggers
-   Build strategies to stay balanced, focused, and resilient inside and outside the classroom

## About Our Workshops

Our YWAP workshops are:

-   **Free of charge** as part of our commitment to community mental wellness
-   **Age-appropriate**, customizable for students in Grades 7–12
-   **Interactive and practical**, designed to help students leave with a completed personal WAP
-   **Aligned with the Ontario curriculum’s** emphasis on mental health literacy and self-advocacy

We’re happy to work around your schedule and can deliver the workshop in person or virtually. The session typically runs between 60–75 minutes and can be tailored to fit classroom blocks or special events like mental wellness days.

## YMHC’s Heart-to-Heart National Campaign ❤️

As part of our Heart-to-Heart campaign, people from across Canada have come together to knit and crochet hearts, sending them to YMHC as a gesture of compassion and connection. These handmade hearts, along with our specially designed compassionate greeting cards, can be used by schools to send caring messages to students who are absent.

This small act of kindness can make a big difference.

If your Hamilton school would like to receive hearts to support your students, please reach out—we’d be happy to send some your way.

Together, we can remind every student that they are seen, missed, and valued.

## Get in Touch

If you’re interested in the workshop or the hearts, we’d love to speak further about bringing these resources to your Hamilton students. Please feel free to contact us at 647-952-9642 or [admin@youthmentalhealth.ca](mailto:admin@youthmentalhealth.ca).

Thank you for your time and all you do to support the students of Hamilton.
