Conférence préliminaire 17 avril 2012
Carmen's Banquet and Conference Centre
1520 Rue Stone Church Est

Un canadien sur cinq souffrira d'une maladie mentale. La plupart des maladies mentales se déclarent à l'adolescence. Presqu'un tiers des étudiants ontariens disent souffrir de stress à niveau élevé qui les empêche de prendre pleinement part à la vie scolaire ou parascolaire.
Le but principal de ce forum est de partager des stratégies, à travers des discussions, des ateliers, des expositions et des présentations, pour pallier aux problèmes liés à la santé mentale dans les écoles et qui s'alignent sur le document ministériel: "Esprit ouvert, esprit sain: Stratégie ontarienne globale de santé mentale et de lutte contre les dépendances."
