This year, in partnership with MeWeRTH, Psychology Mental Health Day will be on Thurs. Oct. 7th from 2:30-4:00. Our Lived Experience speaker will be Elizabeth Manley, the Olympic figure skater who will be discussing her journey of mental health and sport. MeWeRTH has established the ‘Courage to Speak Award’ to recognize the bravery and inspiration of our speakers to share their journey. In addition to presenting Elizabeth Manley with this award, we will be awarding retroactive Courage to Speak awards to our speakers from previous years. Our keynote speaker will be Dr. Lara Aknin from Simon Fraser University who will be speaking on mental health during COVID-19.
