Bipolar & PTSD are not "inner demons”
That’s archaic language that frames mental illness/trauma as being possessed by evil spirits

We demonize brave women while they live and then saint them when they die

Let’s honor Sinead by honoring our next inconvenient prophet in real time

@MarthPaynter I forgot it isn’t -40 there today and instantaneously thought ‘oh god, the top got frozen in the down position’.

[MUMs Study @mumsns]

Are you a new parent/guardian? Would you like to participate in a research study? We want to examine how online technology is experienced during postpartum support groups. Check details on our poster, and feel free to msg/email with Q's and interest!

@Girrl_Friday The spectrum is real 😍😍😍

[Adsum for Women & Children @adsumforwomen]

'Housing support' is about finding and keeping housing and preventing evictions. But it's so much more! Paying rent on time in full is key. So too are the many ways we serve that make housing possible.
As the saying goes at Adsum, a key unlocks much more than a door. 13/13

[Adsum for Women & Children @adsumforwomen]

We see that CPS apprehensions or threat of an apprehension due to LACK OF HOUSING is on the rise. We've heard of at least 4 referrals this month. Our housing crisis should not be a reason for children to be taken into care or to remain in care. It is beyond parents' control. 2/

[Adsum for Women & Children @adsumforwomen]

We're hearing a lot lately about 'housing support' so we want to talk about what it looks like, what our team has witnessed the last 2 days. Our housing support team including intensive case manager and diversion workers, is based in Dartmouth and serves folks throughout HRM. 1/

Starting today, I’ll be tweeting the Calls to Action drafted by the TRC. Read them. Learn about them. Here is #1. The foster care system is the new residential school system. 52% of Indigenous children are in care yet these children account for only 7.7% of the population.

@girrl_friday Omg I literally only eat the pepperoni off the wedge pizza dipped in Donair sauce because it is MY FAVOURITE!! This is amazing

V. Ok

[Adsum for Women & Children @adsumforwomen]

.@IainTRankin we couldn't agree more. No one should be homeless. Is this a commitment to end the experience for Nova Scotians (or only for people wanting to move here)? There are 400+ people unhoused in HRM alone in shelters, emergency units, outside, in tents, in cars ...

@tony_important I would love if this could be incorporated into virtual meetings. ‘Kate brought her pet guinea pig elmo to this mornings rounds’. Everyone would be so much happier.

@DDBattery You’re learning my language :)

@tony_important I ran by this house the other day and looped back because I couldn’t believe how narrow it was!

@developns @beccaleat @CBCNS @CBCIndigenous @hfxgov I’m confused if by being aware of the crop and it’s significance you mean that you will be avoiding building in the area or if you mean you are aware of the damage building over it will cause and intend to do so anyway?
