The Douglas Foundation joins Verdun’s elected officials to raise the Bell Let’s Talk flag as part of National Mental Health Day.
According to Laura Fish, President and CEO of the Douglas Foundation, the annual Bell Let’s Talk campaign is an opportunity to remind people of the importance of supporting mental health research and care across the country. ” Together, we must continue to fund and improve the programs and services offered to all those who suffer from mental illness because current needs are huge,” she says.
The foundation’s team was welcomed by Marie-Andrée Mauger, mayor of Verdun, and members of the city council as well as Marie-Josée Boivin, Vice-President of Human Resources and Maria Crimi, Senior Manager, Community Investments at Bell.
