Very few helping professionals receive solid training in behavioural interventions;
nearly all need it.
Used to treat depression, anxiety, and other problems,
behavioural activation therapy has numerous applications and will be
of interest to a wide range of health professionals and others who help change behaviour.

The Laing House Masquerade Ball

Experience Hollywood with Laing House - October 26, 2013 View in browser

You can be a part of a million dollar moment at the 7th annual Laing House Masquerade Ball, A Night in Hollywood! Experience vintage 1950’s Hollywood, dance the night away and be a part of an event that has raised nearly a million dollars for youth living with mental illness. Our volunteer committee has planned a stellar evening full of extravagance, style, and sophistication. Ask anyone - it’s one of the premiere social events of the year in Halifax.  Paris was classic, Rio was vibrant, Greece was divine and now... Hollywood will be glamorous! Now is the time to come together as a community and show support and awareness for mental health.  The Masquerade Ball supports Laing House programs that empower youth on their journey of recovery through friendship, education, creativity and healthy lifestyles. So join us by purchasing a table or tickets. If you are not able to attend, please consider sponsoring a youth or making a donation. I look forward to seeing you on Saturday, October 26, and thank you for your support!     Jane Machum Chair, Laing House Masquerade Ball Committee 100% Volunteer Driven.
