SUMMARY - Stigma Around Mental Health

Mental health stigma represents one of the most significant barriers preventing newcomers from accessing support they need. While stigma exists in mainstream Canadian society as well, many newcomer communities hold particularly intense negative attitudes toward mental health concerns that can deter acknowledgment of problems and help-seeking even when services are available.
