When you give youth an opportunity to make a difference, you give them an opportunity to lead, to make an impact, to make change.
Eric Windeler's life took a heart-wrenching turn when he lost his son, Jack, to suicide. But from this tragedy, Eric and his wife Sandra Hanington found a mission. They founded Jack.org, a youth mental health charity, to spark conversations and drive change among young people. In this episode of 'Project Circle Up', Eric opens up about his journey, the birth of Jack.org, and the pressing need for resilience and leadership in mental health advocacy.
He also dives into the hurdles the mental health sector faces and shares innovative solutions that could make a difference. Eric's accolades are numerous—Champion of Mental Health award, Queen's University honorary degree, and the Meritorious Service Cross, to name a few—but it's his relentless drive to improve mental health awareness that truly stands out.
From discussing the power of mindfulness and meditation to highlighting key resources, Eric's message is clear: prioritize your mental health and be a catalyst for change in your community. Tune in for an inspiring conversation with Jonathan Andrews and discover how you can make a difference.
