“Because You Matter” Initiative Kick-Off Walk Wrap-Up

The “Because You Matter” initiative is designed to encourage a greater sense of support and increase the likelihood of improved mental health on the University of Calgary campus by reminding all members of our community (students, faculty, staff, alumni) that they matter to others enough to ask for support if they need it, but they also can be the person to matter to someone else by reaching out and offering their support. A 24 hour kick-off walk (0.5km, drop-in basis starting in the South Courtyard of MacEwan Student Centre) has been happening since February 13th at 1pm and will end at 1pm on February 14th. At this time there will be a wrap-up event with Dr. Elizabeth Cannon and Adriana Tulissi from the SU Wellness Centre speaking briefly. All are invited and encouraged to attend the wrap up, but also to complete the walk prior to 1pm.

Location:

South Courtyard MacEwan Student Centre
