Men’s Health Month – Virtual Speaker & Fitness Series

The Canadian Men’s Health Foundation (CMHF) is proud to announce Men’s Health Month, June 1-30. The 2021 theme – Move for Your Mental Health – focuses on stress and anxiety experienced during the pandemic, and how exercise can improve physical and mental health. CMHF has partnered with Anxiety Canada to provide men and their families with quality advice, accessible tools, and motivation, to feel healthier.

Statistics Canada shows one in five Canadian adults screened positive for symptoms of depression, anxiety or posttraumatic stress disorder during the pandemic. Of these, 68% reported their mental health had worsened since the start of COVID-19.
