October 10th is World Mental Health Day. This year’s theme is about access to mental health services during catastrophes and emergencies. Strong communities are essential to good mental health, before, during and after an emergency or disaster. We build these communities when we weave mental health skill-building into all aspects of our lives: home, work, school, and play. Community-based mental health organizations like CMHA help do just that.

For many Indigenous peoples, Canada Day is a reminder of the lasting impacts of colonialism and systemic racism—realities that continue to shape mental health and well-being across generations.

At CMHA, we recognize that reconciliation is not a single act, but an ongoing process. As a network, we are learning, listening and working toward meaningful change. This includes building relationships with Indigenous partners, supporting community-led mental health initiatives and increasing cultural awareness among staff.

We know there is still much to do.
