Women’s mental health is a delicate and complex issue that has been neglected for far too long. Every day, countless women around the world struggle silently with their mental health, facing a myriad of challenges that are often stigmatized and ignored. From anxiety and depression to postpartum depression and PTSD, women are faced with a range of mental health issues that can have a profound impact on their lives. The toll of these struggles can be devastating, leading to feelings of isolation, hopelessness, and despair. It’s time to break the silence and take action to support women’s mental health, ensuring that they receive the care and resources they need to thrive.

Fortunately, there are organizations like Women’s College Hospital that are working tirelessly to address the mental health needs of women. Through innovative programs and services, Women’s College Hospital is dedicated to providing women with the support they need to achieve optimal mental health and well-being.

One of the ways Women’s College Hospital is making a difference is through their annual Run for Women event, which raises funds to support women’s mental health programs. This inspiring event brings communities together to promote mental health awareness and empower women to take charge of their mental wellness.

Join Women’s College Hospital Foundation in Toronto on June 10, 2023 as we run, walk or roll together for women’s mental health, and each other! Let’s break down the barriers to women accessing the mental health care they need and build community while we do it. The in-person event will begin and end at Women’s College Hospital.
