Participants co-create a safe and inclusive space for sharing and strategizing how to move forward in their wellness journey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8 wixui-rich-text__text\">Good nutrition is a key part of every wellness strategy, and especially so for those with mental health challenges. Cooking and sharing a meal provides opportunities for hands-on learning about food and mental health while creating an informal and cohesive dynamic with the participants, peer facilitators, staff and volunteers.&nbsp;The program is being offered in Perth in cooperation with Loving Spoonful with financial support from the Ontario Trillium Foundation. Providence Care and Queen&#8217;s University were key partners in the creation of the program and also support our delivery of the program in Perth.<\/p>\n<p>Cooking Connections is a mental health program, with the goals of coming together in a socially inclusive environment to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>learn basic cooking skills,<\/li>\n<li>share a meal,<\/li>\n<li>engage in guided workshops called&nbsp;<strong>Overcoming Stigma<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The program will be at The Table, 190 Gore St. E., Perth.
