Supporting Parents of Children with Mental Health Challenges - Thursday May 8th, 2025

Approximately 20% of children in Canada will experience a mental illness, and supporting the caregivers, guardians, and parents of these children is crucial. To recognize Mental Health Week, the Ontario Caregiver Organization and Parents’ Lifeline have partnered to host a free webinar that will offer parents some resources, tips, and strategies for supporting their child with a mental illness. Catherin Shea from Parents’ Lifeline, and Amy Coupal, the CEO of Ontario Caregiver Organization, are joining Grant Hardy on The Pulse to share the details of this webinar and talk about the mental health crisis that Canadian youth are facing.
