New All Star Collaboration For Kids Help Phone

This is incredible.  Introducing – Feel Out Loud.  The largest youth mental health movement in Canadian history.

Feel Out Loud is over 50 Canadian artists coming together in support of Kids Help Phone for “What I Wouldn’t Do/ North Star Calling”.  An all star anthem and video in support of Feel Out Loud, Kids Help Phone’s largest youth mental health movement in Canadian history.

Over 50 artists from across the country, whose sole purpose is to amplify the conversation around mental health and empowering young people to feel out loud.

Kids Help Phone says young people have connected with their services 14 million times since January 2020. Primary concerns are anxiety and stress, relationship issues,
depression, suicidal thoughts, and feelings of isolation. The organization says people who experience racism are among the most distressed, second only to those who fear harm in their home. With the campaign, organizers are calling on corporations, community groups and individuals to donate and help raise $300
million so they can expand virtual care and clinical services.

“Youth are struggling more than we even know. In fact, one in two youth are struggling with their mental health. Kids Help Phone is transforming mental health care for young people in Canada and is asking Canadians to support Feel Out Loud, a $300M campaign to unlock hope for young people in Canada to thrive in their world.

Feel Out Loud is the largest movement supporting youth mental health in Canada’s history.

The campaign is aimed at providing young people support without obstacles and help with any hardship. Because no challenge is too big, and no feeling is too small. “

It brings together some of Canada’s best, including Sarah McLachlan Alessia Cara, Jessia, Johnny Orlando, JP Saxe, Rêve, Roy Woods, The Reklaws, TOBi, Tyler Shaw, Fefe Dobson, Jully Black, MacKenzie Porter, Preston Pablo, Zach Zoya, Shawn Desman, Talk, Donovan Woods and so many others.  The incredibly moving and powerful addition of children’s choirs from both the Sarah McLachlan School of Music in Vancouver, BC, and Chief Jimmy Bruneau School in Behchokǫ̀, NT.

The video comes out at noon today on the Kids Help Phone YouTube channel.
