SUMMARY:Men's Health Month: Never Alone
DESCRIPTION:The Canadian Men’s Health Foundation is marking June 2025\, Men’s Health Month\, with a campaign entitled\, Never Alone. This June\, join guys across Canada talking about the tough stuff and getting tools to build better mental health. The 2025 Men’s Health Report contains concerning reports of the health of Canadian men\, physically and mentally. \nSee the webpage here\, that has links to a June 12 workshop for men and other resources. \nEach year\, the week leading up to and including Father’s Day is Men’s Health Week — an excellent opportunity to reflect on and raise awareness about the importance of the health and well-being of Canadian men. Some organizations such as The Canadian Men’s Health Foundation designates the entire month of June as Men’s Health Month. In 2017\, The provincial government started a partnership with the Canadian Men’s Health Foundation to promote healthier lifestyles for men. In 2021\, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research published information about the health of boys and men in Canada\, looking at mental health and wellness\, violence\, disease\, accident rate\, and physical activity. \nAccording to Public Health Canada\, many Canadian men are not achieving their optimal health. In fact\, on average\, they live four fewer years than Canadian women\, for a number of occupational and non-occupational reasons. \nIn the workplace\, it is known that men are less likely to seek support for mental health\, depression and emotional distress. In 2023\, research was done specifically on the mental health of workers in the skilled trades\, and found a connection between physical safety on the job and mental health. \nThe website Mentell Health is a resource for men to connect\, learn and discuss issues around mental health and emotional well being. They also have a page dedicated to Men’s Health Month. \nSee also Men’s Health Week. \n  \nWorkplace Mental Health Webinar Series\n \nOHCOW’s Mayday\, Mayday Webinar series has featured sessions on mental health in male-dominated trades\, such as the 2023 webinar\, Crisis Planning for Worker & Responder Mental Health. \nSee the playlist for the 2025 Mayday\, Mayday here. \nAdditional resources:\nGovernment of Canada \nCanadian Mental Health Association
