🍇 SUMMER IS HERE 🍉 and so are ECLYPSE programs, we adjusted a few of our program times to fit in with everyone’s summer activities so you can get your community service hours while still enjoying the sun ☀️
Starting today, students and caregivers will be able to access PDSB's Be Well Support Line to receive confidential, non-crisis individual counselling, including identity-specific support and access to mental health services.
