We are a non-profit organization in Montreal that helps families cope with mental illness in a loved one. All our programs are free!
Last week we had a visit from Stephanie Valenzuela, mayor of Cote-des-Neiges/NDG, and Sonny Moroz, city councillor and a long-time friend of AMI-Quebec!

If you're dealing with #anxiety, you've just got to learn to relax and all will be well, right? Wrong! There are many different treatments and different things work for different people. Visit amiquebec.org/anxiety for help for yourself or someone you're worried about.

You'll see a LOT of #GivingTuesday posts today, and as a non-profit, AMI is no exception. Plus we've just launched our Annual Campaign--the one time in the year that we ask for money. We'd love for you to help support our programs: amiquebec.org/donate but understand if you're overwhelmed today!

With all the noise and urgency, it’s easy to forget what actually feels good for us. Small #SelfCare actions really can make a difference. Keep that in mind this #BlackFriday!

...that said, these symptoms don't necessarily indicate mental illness. You (or your child) can be having a tough time with #MentalHealth without it being a mental illness. If you need help figuring it out, visit amiquebec.org/youth for organizations that are here for you. #WorldChildDay

We were pleased to participate in CHSSN's Empowering Voices event today ! Besta, one of our Family Peer Support Workers, was AMI's representative. This event created meaningful opportunities for collaboration, resource sharing, and raising awareness about the support we offer.

Wishing you all an excellent weekend! 😀

Last week we held a board and staff "speed dating" event, where we shared some laughs and some pizza, got to know each other better, and had a great time. Our board and our staff have a great relationship, and events like this strengthen our bonds. 💪💙🍕😃🌟

“It's hard to be a ‘normal’ kid these days. If you’re judged too lively, you are ‘hyperactive’; too quiet, you may be ‘depressed’; a bit shy, you’re probably ‘autistic'."

Join us in Montreal or online for AMI's Mental Health Forum on November 13. Free, in English. Details: amiquebec.org/forum

Taking care of your mental health is far bigger than one day a year. It's daily, even hourly, sometimes even minute to minute. If you're struggling, help is on the way--visit amiquebec.org.
