Every year, on October 11th, we recognize this day as National Coming Out Day. This is a day to promote the 2SLGBTQIA+ visibility and support through allyship. We recognize the 2SLGBTQIA+ and the challenging process of coming out on October 11th because it marks the anniversary of the 1987 National mark on Washington for Le***an and Gay rights. We recognize the challenging process of coming out on this day and we create supporting spaces for those that are a part of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community so that they can live their lives authentically.

Yearly throughout the month of October we observe ADHD Awareness Month. This year, 2026, the theme attached to ADHD Awareness is “A Community of Support”. ADHD is a learning difference that affects 5% to 12% of children globally. It also has symptoms that last into adulthood with 2.5% to 5% of adults having ADHD. During this month we share resources, break down stigmas and share knowledge surrounding ADHD.

As we approach Truth and Reconciliation Day this Wednesday, the Centre for Excellence in Indigenous Health honours this important day and the ongoing work of reconciliation.

Reconciliation is not a one-day action. It is an ongoing responsibility — one that asks us to listen, learn, reflect, and build meaningful relationships.

For our non-Indigenous colleagues, learners, partners, and community members, we encourage you to make space for education. Seek out Indigenous voices, histories, cultures, knowledge, and lived experiences — not only today, but throughout the year.

One of the most meaningful acts of reconciliation is our own education. Take the time to learn, listen, reflect, and keep learning.

Reconciliation is ongoing. The work continues beyond September 30. 🧡

We invite you to take a moment to read our latest blog post and join us in the ongoing work of reconciliation:
