Survey: Alberta Farm Mental Health

To get a better picture of Alberta farmers and ranchers’ mental health needs and struggles, AgKnow is launching a Farm Mental Health Survey.

The survey, according to AgKnow, is to help drive change in mental health support for farming communities across the province.

“Your responses pave the way for tailored support programs that directly address the unique challenges faced by Alberta farm families. By sharing your experiences and perspectives, you contribute to the development of resources specifically designed to meet your needs.”

AgKnow’s vision is to “create a shift in farming culture so mental health becomes a natural part of farm life.”

You can participate in the survey by clicking here.
