In April 2020, Health Canada launched Wellness Together Canada in response to a rise in mental health and substance use concerns due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The free, online platform provides 24/7 access to mental health and substance use supports to all Canadians.
A free companion app (PocketWell) is now available for download to help users better track their mental health status. Additional resources include everything from self-assessment and peer support, to free and confidential sessions with social workers, psychologists, and other professionals. Find out more at www.wellnesstogether.ca [9]. PocketWell is available from the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.
