Jack.org UWinnipeg

Jack.org UWinnipeg is a student-led mental health advocacy group dedicated to creating a campus culture where students feel supported, heard, and empowered to talk about mental health. As part of Canada’s largest youth-led mental health organization, the chapter focuses on peer-to-peer education, stigma reduction, and community-building initiatives. Through workshops, discussion spaces, awareness campaigns, and creative events, Jack.org UWinnipeg works to make conversations about mental health accessible and inclusive for all students. The group aims to complement existing campus wellness resources while fostering connection, leadership, and meaningful dialogue within the University of Winnipeg community.
