It’s exam season at @ubcokanagan, which can be a very emotional and stressful time. If you need extra support, come by the Walk-In Wellbeing Clinic (located in ASC 167) on campus for a free 30-min session to discuss your mental health! #SelfCare #WeAllNeedASpace ❤️‍🩹

[AIDE UBC-O @AIDE_UBCO]

Thank you to everyone that came to our Unwind event! We had such a blast connecting and chatting about our experiences with culture and identity. Also, big thank you to our @AIDE_UBCO and @MHAAC_UBCO teams for organizing. Catch you all at the next one! 💖
