Tools and resources to promote mental health literacy
System leaders are key to sharing information effectively. SMH-ON is the primary source of evidence-informed mental health resources and professional learning in Ontario. Mental health promotion is a shared responsibility, and so tools and resources available on the SMH-ON website equip staff at all levels with ready-to-use free materials.
