"...Similar to CMHA North Bay and District's recent Kindness Project initiative, Someone’s Someone encourages people to extend kindness and compassion to those who have a mental illness or live with an addiction.
The addiction crisis is highly visible in the North Bay and District, and it is a frequent point of contention among citizens. My hope is that the Someone’s Someone campaign will inspire us all to challenge our prejudices when it comes to substance use and form new opinions based on facts instead of myths and empathy rather than stigma." - Mary Davis, CEO, CMHA North Bay and District
