Toronto Tooth needs your support!

 

Have you ever wondered how individuals experiencing homelessness brush their teeth?

 

Have you ever stopped for a second and asked yourself how those who experience homelessness brush their teeth?

Well, the sad truth is that many of them do not. Due to their lack of proper access to basic oral hygiene products or dental care, the homeless community of Toronto have the worst oral health status compared to every other population in the city. 

We are TorontoTooth and we intend to change that! As a not-for-profit Agents of Change project we aim to provide oral hygiene products such as toothbrushes and toothpastes to at-risk children, youth, and underprivileged women who are experiencing homelessness  in shelters across Toronto. 


With a donation of even $1, you can help us provide a person with unstable housing with their most basic human hygiene needs that they deserve but cannot afford. Please visit our website (www.torontotooth.ca) or GoFundMe campaign to donate. 

 

Help us fight against the income-related injustices in oral health. Be the change. 

Would you like to learn more about our cause and help us in raising awareness about the income-related inequalities in oral health care? Visit and share our website and platforms with friends and family members:

Thank you in advance for your contribution to the vulnerable homeless community of Toronto and the health of our city!

Student counselling, health & well-being is here for you

 

Hello from Student Counselling, Health & Well-being (SCHW) and welcome to the 2021-2022 school year! For those of you who are hearing about SCHW for the first time, we are a department in the Division of Students that supports the mental health and well-being of students at York University. As a new academic year begins, we wanted to take a moment to let you know about us and the FREE services and supports that are available to you this year.

Peer-led Workshops 
Our team of peer health educators offer workshops on a variety of well-being topics including Mental Health 101, Nutrition Basics, Sleep for Better Grades, Healthier Coping Strategies, Self-Care, and much more. To see what is offered and to sign-up for a workshop, take a look here: https://counselling.students.yorku.ca/workshops

 

Individual Counselling 
SCHW offers same-day and appointment-based counselling in a safe and non-judgemental space. University life can be challenging, and our team of counsellors are here to help you feel heard and understood. Simply call our reception line at (416)-736-5297 to connect with a counsellor for support. During your session, your counsellor will develop a goal with you, and help you move closer towards personal success. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us, our services are confidential and no problem is too small. We are here for you!

Group Support 
Some students may prefer to meet with peers for encouragement and support rather than or in addition to meeting with a counsellor one-to-one. If group support is something that interests you, you’re in luck! SCHW will be offering the following groups (all of which are facilitated or co-facilitated by counsellors) during 2021-2022:

·        LGBTQ2S+ Support Group

·        Racialized Students Support Group

·        Support Group for Survivors of Sexual Violence (in partnership with The Centre for Sexual Violence Response, Support & Education)

·        Virtual Trauma-Informed Yoga Group

·        Gay Men’s Process Group

·        Grief & Loss Group

To learn more about each group and/or how to connect, please visit:

https://counselling.students.yorku.ca/group-counselling-schw

Racialized Students Support Group

The Racialized Students Support Group will resume in January 2022. If you are interested in attending, please refer to this link for more details about this group and how to join: https://counselling.students.yorku.ca/racialized-students-support-group

 

SCHW’s Monthly Trans and Non-binary Support Group

Join our monthly online group to meet other York students navigating gender in a relaxed and safe space.  Our group is facilitated by Jay Jonah, a trans-masculine social worker who specializes in supporting trans and non-binary folxs. This group is a space to share as much or as little as you want.  Ask questions, just listen in, or chat and make some new friends! Open to all trans, non-binary, gender-non-conforming folxs, and those who are questioning their gender.

 

Suicide Prevention & Awareness Certification

SCHW is continuing to offer licences for ‘LivingWorks Start’ to the York U community. In just one hour online, LivingWorks Start teaches trainees to recognize when someone is thinking about suicide and connect them to help and support. We will be giving out licences every month, so add your name here.  

 

Note: The prompt will ask you to sign-in. Please sign-in with your entire York U Passport York credentials, e.g. [log in to unmask]. *However, if you have an email ending @my.yorku.ca, please replace that with @yorku.ca to access the application. Otherwise, you will receive an error message. This application is open to all students, faculty, and staff members.

 

Support for Students Residing Outside of Ontario

Students residing outside of Ontario can access free, unlimited, real-time and appointment-based support from anywhere in the world in an variety of languages through keepme.SAFE.
