National Standard of Canada for Mental Health and Well-Being for Post-Secondary Students
Of the more than 2 million people enrolled in Canadian post-secondary institutions, almost 70% are 24 or under, a demographic particularly susceptible to developing mental health issues.
Championed by the Mental Health Commission of Canada, the new National Standard of Canada for Mental Health and Well-Being for Post-Secondary Students is the first framework of its kind in the world, created to guide policies, procedures, and practices that promote positive student mental health and well-being.
