MONTRÉAL, Jan. 22, 2020 /CNW
Telbec/ - With the 10th annual Bell Let's Talk Day
coming up on Wednesday January 29,
we're celebrating this important milestone with the hundreds of
organizations across Canada that are taking action to support
mental health.
"The theme of this year's campaign is Mental Health: Every
Action Counts and we extend our heartfelt thanks to the many
organizations that are working to help build momentum around the
world's biggest mental health conversation," said Mary Deacon, Chair of Bell Let's Talk. "We
appreciate the support of these wonderful organizations and
encourage everyone to take their own actions big and small to help
create positive change for people living with mental illness."
Now including media creators and distributors, social media
platforms, governments, the military, unions, sports teams and
athletic organizations, festivals, associations, corporations and
competitors, the list of organizations supporting the mental health
message and the Bell Let's Talk campaign grows each year. In
addition, 227 Canadian universities and colleges are holding
events on campuses across the country to promote mental health.
Bell Let's Talk thanks the following organizations for the
actions they've taken to make a positive difference:
