Unsure whether to tell your boss about your mental health challenge? Worried how friends or relatives may judge you if they knew about your diagnosis? Interested in possibly becoming a Brave Faces speaker?

Take control of your mental health story with our free, peer-led Becoming Brave training.

Based on a national curriculum, this one day training covers three primary goals:

  1. Evaluating the costs/benefits of disclosing personal experience with mental health conditions.
  2. Developing strategies for safer disclosing.
  3. Crafting one’s story into a meaningful message.


The training is tailored to fit each individual and help them answer the questions they have about disclosing their mental health experiences to others.
