Young men's mental health is in crisis
The Canadian Men's Health Foundation say 43% of young men aged 19-29 are at risk for moderate-severe depression, compared to the broader male population (18%). Their research shows that 57% of young men in this age group struggle with high to moderate anxiety, compared to the broader male population (30%).
With this in mind, CMHF is expanding its Mindfit Toolkit to tackle stigma and offer more mental health solutions for men across the spectrum.
The toolkit offers includes three virtual sessions a year, available to men without extended health benefits for counselling.
There will be men’s mental health research, new youth mental health tools, no-cost virtual counselling, a national video campaign and content series with third-party fundraising across Canada. Learn more
