Loans for entrepreneurs with mental health/addictions

Hello all, 


I am writing to let you know about a partnership between CAMH and Rotman School of Management which provides loans for people with mental health and/or addictions, who are interested in pursuing self-employment, and who are unable to access credit from mainstream financial institutions.  The initiative is known as RISE Asset Development and they are currently looking for entrepreneurs who need this type of assistance.  


Here's where to get more info:

Good luck,

The Kids are Alright!

At moments we are pretty quick to bash the youth of today. Just the other day I read an article in one of the major daily papers talking about how the current generation of youth suffer from a major case of narcissism, self entitlement, self indulgence and referred to them as the "it's all about me" generation. They described them as a dumbed down generation of digital youth who live and die with their iPhones and Macbooks. They don't talk, they text and that the world that they see doesn't go past the end of their noses or their electronic devices. Well I can tell you this just simply isn't true and painting them with such a negative swath is something I'm not so quick to jump on the bandwagon with.
