Notice

The agencies behind HeretoHelp removed the majority of our translated content in June 2017. We know there is a need for material around mental health and substance use that considers people’s language and culture, but the materials we had were very old and not tailored to the needs of immigrant and refugee newcomers to British Columbia, Canada. Any materials that remain are below because their English equivalents have not been retired. We are working on creating new resources for newcomers after talking to experts in the multicultural sector. Please subscribe to our email newsletter (in English) called Within Sight to stay updated on our new resources for multicultural communities.

For additional translated mental health and substance use resources, please see:

• Multilingual resources from the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health

• Cross-cultural resources from Kelty Mental Health Resource Centre

• Multicultural Mental Health Resource Centre

• Translated resources from Mental Health in Multicultural Australia

Thank you.

Understanding mental health and substance use issues and how to get help can be hard for anyone, but it can sometimes be even more difficult to talk about in some cultural communities.

On this page, family and friends and community service providers will be able to easily download these PDFs, organized by language below. These fact sheets were developed and tested through a community process to make sure the translations are accurate as well as sensitive.
