CMHA Kelowna: BC Election 2020

October 16, 2020 By Daniel Harbridge Leave a Comment

The health and well-being of British Columbians has been significantly impacted with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the overdose crisis. It is crucial that there is a commitment from government when it comes to mental health. Our province, our communities, cannot recover if we do not fund the necessary services that support the mental health of those who need it and prevent further crises from taking place.

CMHA BC: Election Platform

The health, well-being and economic security of British Columbians have been deeply impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Now more than ever before, our new government will have a moral imperative to prioritize mental health and well-being alongside economic recovery. Neither can be achieved if the other is left behind.
