Student Health and Wellness Recognizes Pride Month

Students who are part of the 2SLGBTQQIA+ community have enough on their plates navigating the usual pressures of post-secondary life without having to worry about feeling safe or discriminated against. Student Health and Wellness strives to provide a safe space for all Thunderwolves to get support, resources, information and care. Student Health and Wellness also knows that while members of the 2SLGBTQQIA+ are as diverse as the general Canadian population in their experiences of mental health and well-being, they face higher risks for some mental and physical health concerns due to the effects of discrimination and the social determinants of health. We are excited to launch our new Pride section on the SHW website, dedicated to help 2SLGBTQQIA+ students find supports, services and information. Visit lakeheadu.ca/shw-pride to learn more.
