 Please note the upcoming sessions at The Oasis in Kanata, a place for caregivers of those with symptoms of mental illness.

I've attached the poster for the April session.  Please post and distribute as appropriate in your organization.

Both sessions are free, no registration required. All are welcome.
Location: Glen Cairn United Church, 140 Abbeyhill Drive, Kanata.
For information, visit www.TheOasisKanata.ca<http://www.theoasiskanata.ca/> or email info at TheOasisKanata.ca<mailto:info at TheOasisKanata.ca>.

Monday April 20, 7 - 9 pm at The Oasis in Kanata: Housing and Mental Illness.
Guest speakers from the Ottawa General Hospital’s Crisis Bed Unit, Ancoura (http://www.ancoura.ca/), and the Mental Illness Caregivers Association (http://micaontario.com/) will discuss caregivers’ housing options for their loved ones once they can no longer provide accommodation for them.

Monday May 25, 7 – 9 pm at The Oasis in Kanata: The Person beyond the Illness: How Viktor Frankl Defended the Dignity of Psychiatric Patients.
Edward Marshall of the Ottawa Institute of Logotherapy will provide an overview of the life and work of the author of Man’s Search for Meaning; his theory, Logotherapy; and how his story as a Jewish Holocaust survivor relates to mental illness today. His work has inspired many people to overcome situations of unavoidable suffering.

Thank you.
