CHEO’s YouthNet
They have officially launched the new Youth Mental Health E-Learning Hub. This creative bilingual website was designed by Ottawa youth for youth ages 13 to 24 to participate in a self-guided learning journey about mental health, explore community resources available to them and connect with each other. Teachers and educators can also benefit from this e-learning hub for their lesson plans and to facilitate important conversations with their students about mental health.
