Calling all students and faculty! The Camosun MyWellness program is hosting a talent show to raise awareness for mental health early next semester, and we need your creativity! Singing, dancing, poetry, short stories—you name it, we want it.
So what are the criteria? We just ask that you pick content that has some focus around mental health. One of the best ways to deal with pain is through art and, even better, talking about it and sharing stories. The showcase will be aiming to normalize stigmas around mental-health issues.
The MyWellness program is an online counselling service for students and faculty, offering free assessments, a 24/7 text hotline, and video counselling. Our goal this year is to connect students with the resources they may not be aware of and offer support wherever we can.
So go on! Contact Jordan at mywellnesscamosun@gmail.com with a little bio about the act you’d like to share, and help us make the first talent show for mental health a success. (We will be setting up an audition/run-through date.) See mywellness.com/camosun for more info.
