The 34th Youth in Mind Foundation Golf Tournament to benefit teen mental health took place yesterday at the prestigious Club Laval-sur-le-Lac. A popular fundraising event among the Montreal business community, this year’s tournament brought together nearly 250 participants, who had an opportunity to spend the day on the greens at one of Quebec’s most exclusive golf courses while learning about this urgent societal issue. The event generated net proceeds of $566,000 for teen mental health. 

Thanks to the money raised, the Youth in Mind Foundation can continue to offer workshops in Quebec high schools and teach young people the basics of good mental health. Other initiatives involve the creation of free online content for parents, the entire family and school staff so they can support the teens in their lives on a daily basis.

The online tools cover a wide range of topics such as self-esteem, body image, first jobs, romantic relationships, performance anxiety, etc. to address the many facets of adolescence.
