Schizophrenia Society of Ontario announces October awareness month

This year’s October Awareness Campaign is more exciting and dynamic than ever before. One of the highlights is the Schizophrenia Society of Ontario’s first webcast radio show, “SSO AWARE” – which can be downloaded from the home page of this site. Topics of the program include: addressing issues of stigma and discrimination, as well as a panel discussion on Access to Treatment in Ontario.

Another innovative project being launched for October is our Strengthening Families Together (SFT) Online Program. SFT is a 10 module workshop for families that covers issues such as how to navigate the health care system; how to take care of a loved one who may be suffering from schizophrenia; as well as a helpful introduction to mental illness and schizophrenia.
