As we move away from the holiday season and into the new year, it’s important to check in with student and educators’ emotions and thoughts while prioritizing their mental well-being. To help with this, we are connecting educators and students with resources.
What is Bell Let’s Talk Day?
January 24th is Bell Let’s Talk Day. This day promotes awareness, acceptance, and action to create positive change in mental health.
