ABOUT THE hINTON RMHN ACTION TEAM
The Rural Mental Health Network is a partnership between the Canadian Mental Health Association and rural communities.
Community Animators, trained by CMHA, engage community members, organizations, volunteers and resources, to come together to build strength-based solutions to the mental health needs of each unique rural community. Hinton is very fortunate to have a team of animators to guide our action team, help bring their ideas and projects to life and help secure funding to achieve our goals.
Volunteers are the backbone of our Action Team. If you are interested in community mental health, we are looking for diverse voices at our table to ask questions and provide valuable perspectives! Call FCSS at 780-865-6036 or BRIDGES at 780-865-4464 to learn more!

For 2025: Cultivating healthy neighbour relationships
Hinton's RMHN Action Team aims to rejuvenate neighbour culture. Learn about the impact of healthy neighbour relationships on the 8 domains of wellness, meet your neighbours and build a more connected community!
Our strategy includes:
- Community engagement throughout the year at public events and block parties, about the impact of healthy neighbour relationships on the 8 domains of wellness, how to meet your neighbours and build connections!
- Neighbour Connection kits: Guided participants will assemble a care kit for a neighbour they would like to get to know, and folks learn about their neighbourhood and community.
- More information is coming soon, including program registration.

The Mental Health Continuum Model
Promoting the continuum of mental health gives us the tools and language to talk about stressors and behaviours or symptoms without stigma, and teaches us how to respond when we notice or experience a struggle or setback.
