Support Doesn’t Take a Summer Break.

Supporting the mental health and well-being of our students remains a priority all year-round. To help our students stay connected and supported this summer, the Sudbury Catholic District School Board’s Mental Health and Addiction Services team is offering free, brief one-on-one counselling sessions (up to three per person) for Sudbury Catholic students aged 8 to 17.

Sessions will be available: July 7 to 25 and August 11 to 29, 2025.

Mental Health Doesn’t Take a Holiday. These confidential sessions provide Sudbury Catholic students with a safe, supportive space to talk and receive professional guidance. Whether you are facing challenges or simply need someone to talk to, our team is here to help throughout the summer months.

This free service provides flexible meeting options to best meet students’ needs and preferences, including in-person (face-to-face), telephone, and virtual (Zoom) sessions. In-person appointments are available at St. Francis School (691 Lilac Street) for students aged 8 to 17, while virtual and telephone sessions are only offered for students aged 12 and up.
