#HearNowON – Student Voices on Mental Health: Final Report

This report was published by School Mental Health Ontario and Wisdom2Action.

HERE’S HOW THE AUTHORS DESCRIBE THIS REPORT:

School Mental Health Ontario (SMH-ON) and Wisdom2Action (W2A) launched #HearNowON: Student Voices on Mental Health to connect with secondary school students in Ontario on their priorities regarding mental health. 1,028 students and young people across Ontario participated through an online survey and approximately 159 young people participated through regional forums or the data analysis process.

Three key objectives were explored:

1. To determine high school students’ mental health knowledge needs and learning preferences.
2. To gather student ideas for building mental health awareness, reducing stigma, and enhancing wellness at school.
3. To learn more about ways that students would like to get involved in provincial, regional, school board, and school-level mental health initiatives.
