The Mindfulness Challenge is a key event that helps us continue delivering these programs to individuals and communities who otherwise would not have access. This year we are unable to do an in-person event and are in the process of re-imagining the Mindfulness Challenge for the digital world. We are moving the event to the winter of 2021, to celebrate the Centre's 10th anniversary and to bring several mini-challenges that focus on themes that support participants through this turbulent time. Your feedback will help us create a meaningful and unique event, we ask that you take some time to complete a short survey https://forms.gle/g1tRvAa2zEkKtUtU9
