Carleton Wellness

In lieu of Black History Month, we asked our fellow student leaders and Carleton staff their thoughts on the importance of Black wellness and mental health. In addition, they shared a Black-owned Ottawa business to be highlighted. In all, it is very clear that wellness and mental health for the Black community is important!

Share with a friend and comment below a Black-owned business you want to highlight so others can support!

As we are nearing the end of February, we wanted to take a look at what healthy relationships look like!

Join us in participating in our Random Acts of Kindness Challenge!
 
We challenge you to complete at least one random act of kindness this week - send us a photo via Instagram DM and you will be added to a kindness collage!!
 
Swipe to see some examples and ideas of what a random act of kindness could look like!
