EP 24: HOT TAKES on State of Mental Health of New Yorkers Report and Canada’s 1st full-scale free grocery store
Nick and Todd are back with more mental health news, ready to dissect the headlines and spark your critical thinking.
Todd shares a story about Canada’s first full-scale free grocery store, which gives food choices to the food-insecure population. The new Regina Food Bank Community Food Hub is modeled after a traditional grocery store, and clients can use credits to grocery shop freely. Todd and Nick discuss the benefits and speculate why no one has come up with the concept before now.
Nick shares the results of a “first of its kind” report titled “The State of Mental Health of New Yorkers.” The largest city in the United States report indicated one in four New Yorkers experience a mental health disorder, while treatment options vary by community. Nick and Todd discuss the report and what to do with the results.
Prepare for passionate arguments, diverse perspectives, and a deeper understanding of the complex world of mental health. Join Nick and Todd for Mental Health Headlines Hot Takes to engage your mind and challenge your assumptions.
