TALKMORE. ASKMORE. LISTENMORE.

The Do More Agriculture Foundation is the national voice and champion for mental health in Canadian agriculture. We are changing the culture of agriculture to one where all are encouraged, supported, and empowered to take care of their mental wellbeing. Those working in the agriculture industry are among the most vulnerable when it comes to mental health issues. By collaborating with the entire industry and those working to address the state of mental health in agriculture, we can and will make a substantial impact.

How can you Do More? Sometimes it's as easy as being able to Talk More, Ask More and Listen More.

WHY DOES DO MORE AG EXIST?

Producers, men and women, often feel uneasy about seeking professional help.

They want to be strong and get through it themselves, or, they worry what people may think.

But we know that reaching out for help makes a difference.

Need

Farmers are 4 times more likely to use firearms to die by suicide than the general population.

Need

Rural communities where farmers live often have poor access to mental health supports.

Need

People who work with farmers need information, education, and support so they feel able to help.

" YOU ARE NOT ALONE. IT IS MORE THAN OK TO ASK FOR HELP. THERE IS HOPE AND THERE IS RELIEF.

— Gerry Friesen, The Recovering Farmer
