SUMMARY:🧠 Join the Movement to Prioritize Brain Health in Canada
DESCRIPTION:Over 10 million Canadians are living with neurological conditions\, impacting every aspect of their lives and costing the Canadian economy an estimated $61 billion annually—more than cancer and cardiovascular disease combined. \nThe last comprehensive study\, Mapping Connections\, was conducted over a decade ago. With Canada’s aging and diversifying population\, and in the wake of the pandemic\, it’s imperative to update our understanding of neurological health. \nBrain Health Matters\, an initiative by Neurological Health Charities Canada\, is calling on the federal government to invest in a renewed National Population-level Neurological Health Survey. This updated survey will inform and improve the prevention\, diagnosis\, and treatment of neurological and mental health conditions\, leading to better outcomes for patients and caregivers. ​ \nTake Action Today: \n\n\nVisit: brainhealthmatters.ca \n\n\nSend a Letter: Use our easy tool to email your local candidates\, urging them to support this crucial investment.​brainhealthmatters.ca \n\n\nYour voice can make a difference. Together\, we can ensure that brain health is a national priority.​
