MHWG will be accepting members in January, so stay tuned for that announcement in the New Year! Until then, we want to hear from students directly regarding what you would like to see this Working Group do for you! Suggestions and comments from all students are welcome.
Please take a moment to fill out our online form (http://current.ischool.utoronto.ca/node/19591) or drop off any written suggestions to our mailbox located outside of the Student Services office (Mailbox A56, labelled “MISC Mental Health WG”). Fill out as much or as little information as you would like. All submissions are anonymous, and will be read by students only. Looking forward to hearing from you!
