Did you know that today is also #WorldHomelessDay? Those with mental health problems are over-represented among homeless populations. This should be looked at as lack of availability of adequate supports—a systemic issue—and not the fault of the person experiencing homelessness. Homelessness has many causes, but the solution is simple: housing, then proper supports to remain housed (for as long as those supports are needed). Our Phoenix HOMES Program is Regina’s only housing first program, and works hard to provide these supports everyday. But housing is a big part of all of our programs, as we firmly believe that housing is a human right, and that you can’t heal without the safety and security of a home. #HousingFirst #HousingIsAHumanRight #EndHomelessnessNow #WorldHomelessDay2021 ...

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay Today, take some time to take care of your own mental health. Think of some ways that you can practice self-care today, and everyday.

Let’s continue to work toward ending the stigma of mental illness and the stigma of asking for the help we need.

Let’s work toward normalizing taking care of our mental health in the same way we take care of our physical health. ... See MoreSee Less

For the last day of Mental Illness Awareness Week we want to share about the benefits of Peer Supports in mental health treatment.For those who may not know, a peer support is a person with lived experience (in this case, lived experience of mental illness) that is employed within a mental health program. At Phoenix, we have peer supports working in a number of capacities, but today we are going to focus on our Peer Support Specialist role. Our Peer Support Specialists are a unique support role in our programs, and they use their lived experience and their personal recovery journeys to help engage individuals in programming, help with social and community integration, and to act as a positive and supportive role model.At Phoenix, we recognize the need and importance of incorporating peer supports into our programs and the value of their having lived experience input for our program delivery.Here is a link to a great article on the importance of peer support from the Mental Health Commission of Canada: mentalhealthcommission.ca/resource/making-the-case-for-peer-support/##MentalIllnessAwarenessWeek #MIAW2021 ...
