  • Happy Pride Month🏳️‍🌈 As #pride month begins, it’s wonderful to celebrate the diversity in the community and acknowledge the progress made by the champions of that progress. It's also important to acknowledge how much work is left to be done. Taking care of your mental health is important as ever. We want to share some on and off campus resources for LGBTQ2S+ individuals who need support or are looking to learn/connect with the community. You are never alone. Happy Pride Month 🌈

  • “It is a time to be strong. We must face the horror that comes with finding 215 Indigenous children who died in a residential school and commit to finding the others who went missing. There has been a lot of talk with no action on this front. The truth must be sought and acknowledged. We do this for the sake of these little ones and their loved ones, for the sake of residential school survivors, for the sake of Indigenous People, for the sake of a kinder future and a better Canada.” Dr. Linda ManyGuns Associate Vice-President Indigenization and Decolonization

  • For Sexual Violence Awareness Month, MRU and SAMRU will be posting love letters to survivors created by community members to promote a culture that believes and supports survivors of sexual violence. This #SurvivorLoveLetter campaign is occurring alongside Bow Valley College @bowvalley and the University of Calgary @ucalgary. If you have been affected by sexual violence and would like support, go to mru.ca/ddsv for more information. @samrubuzz @mrulife @mrulivewell @mruresidence #SVAM #survivorloveletter #mrulife #SAMRUBuzz #ibelieveyou ... Image description: On pink background with a sketch of two people. One sitting, and one walking. Words, read, #SurvivorLoveLetter Hello! I just wanna share to you that humans shed skin every 2-4 weeks. So, if ever you're touched, uncomfortably or by someone who manipulated or gaslighted, or all in all did you wrong, remember that after some time, there are parts of you that are so new, those people never even breathe the same air as your new skin. Whatever it is that happened to you, it's not ALL that you are. Whatever it is that happened to you, best believe that there are people who support and love you. Whatever it is that happened to you, don't rush, heal in your own time. xoxo your anon supporter.

  • #Repost from @mru.peerhealth . . . A couple days ago we shared some resources to help those facing domestic violence and abuse in Alberta. However, most campuses including MRU have their own resources. The last two resources can help you out with much more than domestic violence, like mental health and stress management. Many students don't know about that service on campus so we encourage you to share these and other resources on campus. #dvss #mru #ibelieveyou #mrulife #mrulivewell #metoo #sexualviolence #webelieveyou #campusservices #conselling #studentservices #mentalhealth #advocate
