Everybody needs support sometimes.
With the rise in mental distress as people grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic, a new publicly-funded service is providing free confidential resources and support. Wellness Together Canada is Canada’s first and only online platform offering immediate, 24/7 mental health and substance use support for all ages, funded by the Government of Canada.
Frontline health care workers are facing heightened stress during the pandemic, often facing increased workplace demands and managing the fear and anxiety that accompany the risk of infection. The Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions is proud to partner with Wellness Together Canada to share this service with health care staff, their families and their patients.
Wellness Together Canada offers a “stepped care” approach where users can be instantly connected to virtual mental health services – from a mental health self-assessment to extensive support and resources, to live phone, video or text counselling with a mental health professional or crisis responder – all at no cost to them.
The model is supported by Kids Help Phone, Canada’s leading e-mental health solution for youth, and Homewood Health, one of Canada’s leading providers of mental health and addiction treatment services and employee assistance programs; both of whom bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise in providing virtual mental health services.
Everybody needs support sometimes. Go to WellnessTogether.ca for free support, available 24/7.
