Mental Health Ambassador Program

Provided by Whistler Community Services Society

A program designed to teach individuals how to spot and support mental health challenges.
For those living in Whistler and surrounding area who are interested in learning how to provide empathetic, thoughtful, meaningful, and resourceful support to those around you, while increasing your knowledge of local mental health resources. Participants of this program will learn about a variety of mental health support tools and resources, receive training in opioid overdose prevention, and hear from guest speakers about what mental health support in our community looks like.

After completing this program, it is hoped that the Ambassadors will feel confident in spotting signs and symptoms of mental health challenges, and will be able to confidently support their family, peers, coworkers, and community members with the material that they’ve learnt.
