The One in Five campaign is part of the Employee Mental Health strategy focused on de-stigmatizing conversations around mental health and illness.
One in Five refers to the fact that one in five people in Canada will experience mental illness in any given year. Despite how common mental illness is, three quarters of people report feeling uncomfortable disclosing a mental illness in the workplace due to the impact of stigma and fear of negative repercussions (CAMH).
Stigma and shame can discourage people from seeking support and can present barriers in the workplace and community for those living with mental illness.
The One in Five campaign highlights the fact that those experiencing mental illness are our friends, colleagues, and community members.
Through infographics and posters, this campaign aims to debunk stigmatizing myths around mental illness and provide the UWindsor community with facts and helpful tips for supporting those who may be struggling.
