Introducing The Miles For Mental Health Run & Walk.
The Miles For Mental Health Run & Walk, presented by Douglas College, will bring our community together in support of healthy minds, healthy bodies, mental health awareness, and stigma reduction. The 2.5km walk and 5km run will take place in Queen’s Park, New Westminster on May 7th, 2011 and draw participants from throughout the Lower Mainland. The upbeat family event will feature music, food, an art exhibition, and keynote addresses.
1 in 5 Canadians will suffer from mental illness. Were all affected by it: its time to take action. The Canadian Mental Health Association Simon Fraser Branch works tirelessly to promote positive mental health. Our vision is healthy minds in a healthy society and we need your support to make this vision a reality.
