DIFD and Sophie's Squad are two causes very close to our hearts here in Ottawa. Tonight, we're honoured to recognize and honour both organizations and everything they do for mental health awareness in the community.
It's ok to not be ok 💜
"The more we can be open about it and talk about it, the easier it is for people to get the help they need."
@j_chychrun7 opens up around the loss of his cousin Daron and supporting education, awareness and research initiatives around mental health through @difdroyal.
The entire hockey world, and so many of us, are saddened by the passing of Shawn Simpson. His dedication to mental health advocacy helped break stigma and inspire change. Our heartfelt condolences to his loved ones. Let’s honor his legacy by continuing the conversation 💜
And with that, the 43rd Annual #NGHAPaintItPurple Tournament is officially underway!
A special thank you to members of the @nghawildcats, @OGHAhockey, and @difdroyal organizations for joining us on the ice for a ceremonial puck drop before the first game of the event.
In honour of #BellLetsTalk day we're looking back on our Hockey Talks night presented by @Bell_LetsTalk. A night that began with a special puck drop with the Richardson's and @difdroyal, and ended with the @SenatorsFndn raising more than $40,000 in support of youth mental health.
#DYK 7️⃣0️⃣% of people with mental illness see their symptoms begin before 18?
Our adolescent years are a time of so much change so it’s crucial to pause and prioritize your mental well-being💜 Even if it's just hanging out with friends or journaling, every small step matters 💜

Playing to inspire today💜
Today marks the 12th year of Cornell Women’s Ice Hockey’s Annual DIFD Game (Do It For Daron). We hope to continue to raise awareness and inspire conversations about mental health in a broader scope within and outside the athletic community.
Tonight, Jakob Chychrun and his aunt and uncle, Stephanie and Luke Richardson, partook in puck drop for the @Senators' #HockeyTalks Night.
The Richardsons founded Do It For Daron (@difdroyal) in honor of their daughter Daron (Jakob's cousin) who lost her life to suicide in 2010.
