Beyond the Binary: Supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ Mental Health with Pride

At CMHA North & West Vancouver, part of our commitment to “mental health for all” means creating spaces where everyone – regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation – feels seen, safe, and supported.

During Pride this year, we are celebrating the vibrant, resilient, and powerful 2SLGBTQIA+ communities in our region and across the country. Pride is not only a time for visibility and joy; it’s also a reminder of how far we’ve come, and the collective effort still needed to build truly inclusive mental health systems.
