Join us on World Schizophrenia Day for our Strides of Hope Walk on Wednesday, May 24, 2023 from 12:30 - 1:30 pm! Our goal is to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and show our support for all Albertans who are affected by schizophrenia and other severe mental illnesses. SSA hosts our Strides of Hope walk in six cities across the province where our branches are located:
Calgary
Camrose
Edmonton
Lethbridge
Medicine Hat
Red Deer
If you don’t live in one of these cities or are unable to join us in-person, you can still participate and show your support! Simply wear purple, snap a picture, and share it on your social media using the hashtags #WorldSchizophreniaDay and #SSAStridesofHope. Let others know you support the SSA, and feel free to use one of our sample social media posts to help us raise awareness and reduce stigma.
