A Standard for post-secondary mental health – One year later

The CSA Z2003:20 National Standard of Canada for Mental Health and Well-Being for Post-Secondary Students (the Standard) — the first of its kind in the world — is a set of flexible, voluntary guidelines to help post-secondary institutions support the mental health and well-being of their students.
