Mental Health and COVID-19
Hi!
I'm curious if any health units/organizations have done some work around COVID-19 and mental health issues associated with it (ie. messaging, talking to your kids, workplace stress due to self isolation etc).
If so, feel free to message me or reply!
Thanks,

Hi there,
At the Ontario Centre of Excellence for Child and Youth Mental Health, we have been pulling together evidence/resources to support service providers to continue to care for children, youth and families at this time. New resources will be added weekly--please have a look at www.cymh.ca.
Stay safe,
