In recognition of World Mental Health Day on October 10, Langara’s Journalism program and People & Culture invite you to take a closer look at how our perceptions of mental health and illness are shaped by popular culture and influenced by the media every day.
Join us for a frank and open discussion about sources of stereotypes and stigma, and find out what it will take to re-frame the conversation.
Hear from:
- Perrin Grauer, Langara Journalism alumnus, writer, and artist
- Mercedes Nicoll, four-time Winter Olympian, pro snowboarder, and youth mental health advocate
