Title Sponsor: Canada Post
(see attached flyer)
Led by Vancouver counsellor and stand up comic David Granirer, Stand Up For Mental Health (which is the subject of the VOICE Award winning documentary Cracking Up) teaches stand-up comedy to people with mental illness as a way of building confidence and fighting public stigma.
Come laugh your head off at this show featuring our all new Ottawa 2009 comics plus our Ottawa Alumni comics!
Stand Up For Mental Health aims to reduce public stigma around mental illness and spread a message of hope and empowerment.
People with mental illness are always being told what they can’t do. In this show, they get to prove what they CAN do! For information
