Today I am grateful for joining a session titled "Summer vacations and mental health: You and your child" offered by the Canadian Mental Health Association - Hamilton (CMHA) and facilitated by Mikaela Ivanco. I acknowledge and appreciate the significance of today's session for a variety of reasons, for instance:
- Today's session was the requirement of the summer vacation as it is already been sprung. This session was magnificent support for the parents to approach the mental health and well being of their children
- Canadian Mental Health Association offered this session free of cost, it is a huge financial relief to the professionals and parents at this time of the COVID 19
