Stand up for Mental Health

This event has passed.
Stand Up for Mental Health shows look at the lighter side of taking meds, seeing counsellors, getting diagnosed, and surviving the mental health system. By doing stand up comedy, something that most so-called "normal" people would never want to attempt, the Stand Up For Mental Health comics, all of whom have been impacted by mental health issues, fight stigma by demonstrating what people with mental illness are capable of.The comic's acts look at the lighter side of their mental health journeys, and spread a message of hope and empowerment. Because this message is delivered with humour, people want to hear it. Stand Up for Mental Health puts a human face to mental illness and addictions.
