About the Canadian Journal of Theology, Mental Health and Disability

Welcome to our Journal! We are excited to launch this new project highlighting student work and voices of people with disabilities and mental health issues. As you move around the site you will learn more about us, about our dreams for this journal, and our first call for submissions. In our first issue we will explore the current COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on people living with mental distress and disabilites. We will also consider how racism is impacting people with disabilities and mental health conditions in Canada. We invite you to look at our call for papers and share within your networks. If you have any comments or questions, please reach out to us by email. Please note that we welcome international submissions!
