The 2024 Chestermere Mental Health Fair aims to promote awareness, destigmatize mental health concerns, provide valuable resources and information, promote a culture where seeking support is encouraged, and foster a sense of community.
​
This FREE event is open to all community members interested in learning how to support their own mental health, support others, and find local resources. Parents, caregivers, coaches, mentors, and youth will benefit from attending this event.
Trade Fair Booths will be set up by local organizations that offer program, services and resources on mental health and wellness. Service providers and professionals will be available to answer questions and provide resources from 10:00am to 1:30pm.
​
Local professionals will be making presentations throughout the day on current issues impacting our community. Join us for one presentation, or stay for them all. Presentations will begin at 10:00am and will be approximately 20 minutes in length.
The first 100 attendees through the door will receive a FREE Community Mental Health Fair Tote bag!

The Chestermere and Area Mental Health Coalition (MHC) is a multi-sectoral group of professionals and community members who have come together with the goal of supporting and encouraging positive mental health for the community as a whole. The MHC was established in April 2019, and is coordinated in partnership with Synergy and The Calgary Rural Primary Care Network. The coalition was created in response to the need for increased awareness and support for mental health resources. Synergy and the Calgary Rural Primary Care Network host monthly meetings to collaborate around mental health concerns facing the community, discuss local programs and services, and host presentations from areas service providers and networks.
