Entrepreneurship can be a powerful path to independence — but you don’t have to do it alone.

Through Self Help & Peer Support at CMHA Waterloo Wellington, the Entrepreneurship program supports individuals with lived experience in the mental health and/or addiction system who are ready to explore self-employment or start their own business.

This is a self-help approach — meaning YOU lead your vision, your decisions, and your direction. Along the way, you’ll receive guidance in building your business strategy, developing a plan, and connecting with supportive entrepreneurship resources — all while prioritizing your mental health and preventing burnout.

Hear from Iman Grewal, Entrepreneurship Facilitator and learn how this program blends business development with peer support and lived experience.

This February, we recognize 30 Years of Black History Month: Honouring Black Brilliance Across Generations – From Nation Builders to Tomorrow’s Visionaries.

We honor the resilience, brilliance, and contributions of Black communities — past, present, and future. Mental health is a vital part of that legacy. Together, we can break stigma, amplify voices, and create spaces where healing and hope thrive.
