SUMMARY:Learn to Cope with Stress
DESCRIPTION:Mental health challenges shouldn’t get in the way of doing what you love. Our programs help overcome barriers and get you on the right track to where you’d like to be. \nOur free mental wellness programs\, Y Mind and Mind Medicine\, help participants learn how to manage stress and mild-to-moderate anxiety (individuals experiencing severe anxiety and stress that significantly impacts their ability to perform daily activities likely require more support than what Y Mind is intended to provide). Our programs are evidence-based and teach Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness.\nTo participate\, you may self-refer\, you do not need a diagnosis of anxiety\, and you do not need to be a Y member \nMORE INFO HERE

SUMMARY:Open the Door - A three part series designed to transform the mental health system
DESCRIPTION:Open the Door – A three part series designed to transform the mental health system. \nParents are fighting for their children’s lives within a mental health system steeped in stigma. They are scared\, isolated\, and exhausted\, caught in a cycle of navigating a fragmented system that fails to meet their needs. \nTheir plea is clear: accessible\, comprehensive care with long-term support. \nIn our first session\, we heard powerful stories and introduced a framework for change. Now\, we’re building on that foundation with a solutions-focused process that brings families\, community leaders\, and policymakers into honest dialogue. \nThis next phase is about turning ideas into action—working together to improve access to mental health services in BC. Ahead of the session\, we’ll share guiding questions to help participants reflect on system barriers and potential policy or practice changes. \nTogether\, let’s open the door to support families\, inform policy\, and build a future where every child can thrive. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Aging Caregivers
DESCRIPTION:We cannot slow the aging process in ourselves or in the people we care for! As we get older\, our ability to care for our family member becomes more and more difficult. Planning our own future\, and the future of our loved ones can be a terrifying process. Will we be able to provide the necessary care? Will they be well cared for in the future\, after we are gone? What can we do to make the future easier? Connecting with other families in similar situations is the best way to problem solve and figure out what will work best for our specific situations. Join our call with other “mature” parents and caregivers and we can problem solve together!\n\nFamily Support Institute of BC (FSI) is a provincial not-for-profit society committed to supporting families who have a family member with a disability.
