Description	Schools of Thought; A Provincial Summit on Student Mental Health Date: Saturday March 14 Time: 11am-8:30pm Location: University of Toronto St George Campus Register here: http://bit.ly/on-smh-summit For more information and Access Info visit: https://www.facebook.com/events/302397644054130/ No more months-long waitlists. No more unnecessary handcuffs. No more stigma, isolation, and preventable losses. Students are more than capable of assessing our own needs and the interventions that can be used to meet them. That�s why, on March 14th, members of post-secondary communities from across Ontario are gathering at a mental health summit organized by students, for students. At a time when meteoric increases in mental illness, isolation, and inadequate services are impacting every single one of our campuses and our lives, we need space � specifically, connective spaces. We need diverse experts to be able to share insights into today�s micro-level �student experience� and province-wide challenges; to build relationships and co-create calls to action that enrich all our communities. The Program 11 AM: Registration & Lunch sign in, free local catering, meet new people 12 PM: Introductions to the summit, one another, and the land 1 PM: Presentations; Q&A Periods by various student and non-student mental health experts 3:30 PM: Discussions Pt. 1 brainstorm key themes, calls to action, and �next steps� 5 PM: Dinner free local catering; volunteers will synthesize points thus far 6 PM: Discussions Pt. 2 co-create final draft of our calls to action and next steps (that will be built upon in future advocacy work to come, and can be shared with our communities, institutions, and governments)
