LETHBRIDGE, AB. — For many, a new year brings with it the anticipation and hope of what may lay ahead. However, for other people, each new month brings with it an increase in turmoil , fear, disappointments and the ongoing challenges of the past year. These challenges can stem from unemployment, illness, loss, financial insecurity, family turmoil, the ongoing effects of COVID-19, or the many stresses that we face in our daily lives.
When people are struggling through the frustration and stress of their circumstances, some may not know where to turn, while others are afraid or hesitant to ask for help.
When these situations arise, the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), Alberta South Region (ASR), wants to ensure that people know where to turn for assistance in navigating their immediate challenges, and find support for their ongoing mental wellness through their programs and services.
Deborah Chenery, Executive Director for CMHA – ASR, explains there are many factors that can affect mental health and options are available for people right here in Lethbridge. The agency seeks to provide programs and services that meet people where they are at in their mental wellbeing and connect them with the supports they need, when they need them.
