Caregivers show up every day and often without recognition or rest and can take a real toll on mental health. Burnout, stress, anxiety and isolation are more common than we talk about and the data backs this up.

A 2024 national study by the Canadian Centre for Caregiving Excellence found that 47% of caregivers say they feel tired because of their caregiving responsibilities; 44% feel worried or anxious and 37% feel overwhelmed. And it doesn't stop there. On average, caregivers provide 5.1 hours of care a day, adding up to more than 30 hours of unpaid care per week. This is nearly the equivalent of a full-time job.

For those balancing caregiving with employment, the impact is even sharper. According to the Mental Health Research Canada, one in three working caregivers experience burnout and they are nearly twice as likely to miss work due to mental health reasons compared to those without caregiving responsibilities.

At CMHA, we see this every day. Whether someone is caring for a loved one or trying to manage their own wellbeing at the same time, support matters for both.

If you're a caregiver, you deserve care too.

Visibility is powerful. This year, International Transgender Day of Visibility is focused on safety and building power across generations. Because being seen should mean being safe. It should mean access to care.

Trans people are living full, ordinary lives while navigating systems that don’t always make space.

Today is about visibility, but what comes next is what matters.

We know we’ve been sharing a lot about our walk-in services lately, and it can be hard to keep track of where to go and when. So we’ve made a weekly schedule for all our Walk-In Counselling and Walk-In Case Management across Huron and Perth so everything is in one place.

Walk-In Counselling offers support for mental health, addiction, and anything else you might be going through.

Walk-In Case Management can help with things like housing applications, ID and birth certificate applications, treatment applications, booking appointments, and finding the right resources.

No referral needed — just walk in. 💚

Behind every Connection Centre visit is a moment of care, compassion, and connection 💙

In this video, two of our long-time volunteers share what it means to be part of the Stratford Connection Centre — and the impact that showing up for others can have.

From supporting individuals experiencing homelessness to helping people navigate housing, health, and community services, our Connection Centre is built on connection — and volunteers are a big part of that.

Thank you to our incredible volunteers, and to United Way Perth-Huron for helping share these stories.
