About Us
The UBC Mental Health Awareness Club (UBC MHAC) is UBC’s mental health promotion club. Our goals are to raise awareness for mental health, promote and support positive mental health, and eliminate the stigma towards mental illnesses and mental health conversations. We work towards these goals by hosting a variety of events and creating blog posts for anyone interested in different mental health perspectives!
