2020 has brought many challenges, but today we honour those who have, and currently serve our Country, from our homes. We remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms, and what define us as Canadians. #RemembranceDay
The safety of our volunteers includes caring for their mental health. Members may be exposed to traumatic events while responding to marine emergencies. Our partnership with @WoundWarriorCA ensures their access to mental health services when needed. Open up about #Mentalhealth
Together, we can help eliminate the stigma associated with #MentalIllness. Open up the conversation about mental health and learn more: ow.ly/k3TI50BJHPR #MIAW2020
