Today is the #NationalDayForTruthAndReconciliation here in Canada. Children are at the heart of our work and we want to honor the many Indigenous children who were stolen from their families and endured years of abuse and trauma in the residential school system. A few years ago we interviewed Jeffrey Schiffer from Native Child and Family Services of Toronto to discuss the work of advocating for the rights and well-being of Indigenous children and families today and in the future. You can listen to the episode here: https://lnkd.in/g7sJTW-m We hope you'll spend some time today reflecting, donating and learning more about Indigenous people and their history in Canada. 🧡

Life Skills Coach | Occupational & Social Welfare | Lived Experience Speaker | Life Coach & Member of MIV Team for Lighthouse Charity |🎙️Host of The Struggling Mind Podcast
Yesterday we delivered a talk to the construction students at Warrington & Vale Royal College. We spoke about the free 24/7 confidential support they can access from Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity and how their immediate family can also use the charity. We encouraged them to talk, connect and learn from each other but more importantly not to be afraid to reach out when they are struggling. These students are the future of our industry and we have to equip them with the insight and knowledge to help them not only to succeed in their chosen trade but also to succeed in life. These young adults are the generation who will help us who have been conditioned to suppress our emotions to break the cycle of stigma within the construction industry. We have a duty to support our future generation by creating an environment where reaching out for help and talking about their struggles will be met with acceptance and encouragement and not with judgement or shame. If we don’t encourage them to change the culture within our industry - who will? Give yourself what you need🧠 #menwhotalkheal If your struggling - Help is here👇🏽 Construction industry helpline 0345 605 1956 (UK) 1800 939 122 (ROI) Text HARDHAT to 85258 (UK) 50808 (ROI) #construction #industry #charity #future #stigma #youngadult #students #lifecoaching #mentalhealthawareness #mentalwellbeing #growth #development #environment #culture
