vulnerable subjects, the children caught in harm's way. WELL Health
Technologies stands in solidarity with the Ukrainian people and
supports UNICEF's much-needed humanitarian efforts."
WELL recognizes that these are challenging times for all and

also be impacting our own WELL team members, especially ones with
family and friends in Ukraine. So,
in partnership with Focus Mental Wellness, a WELL Ventures company,
WELL is providing increased funding to support its employees,
healthcare providers and consultants in Canada to obtain timely access, at no cost, to
therapy with a licensed practitioner.
Also, WELL is committed to working with Canadian authorities on
