NEW! Be Safe by mindyourmind has been updated to make it easier to switch between regions!
Designed with the help of young people, the app aims to make it easier for you to stay safe during a crisis and find the right support. With regions across Canada, the Be Safe App offers a range of mental health, substance use and crisis services that you can access for support.
Our latest update includes a NEW feature that allows you to easily change your region. To access this feature, simply go to the app’s home screen and look for the “menu” button on iOS or the three-line icon on Android in the top left corner. Once you click on the menu, you will see the “Change Region” button, which you can use to switch to a different region.
Use the button to:
- Switch between your hometown and your schooltown between semesters
- Find resources near you if you find yourself travelling or visiting family and friends in a new city
- Easily see province-wide resources
- See what’s available for support if you’re helping a friend in a different city
We are always working to add new regions to the app. If you don’t see your region listed, you can reach out to your local mental health and substance use organizations to advocate for the Be Safe app to feature your area.
If you are a service provider and would like to see your region added to the app, contact us at besafeapp@mindyourmind.ca.
