This March, we invite you to celebrate this incredible profession, and learn how social workers are meeting Ontarians where they’re at, when it matters most. As the largest group of mental health professionals in the province, social workers are here to help Ontarians on their journey to better health, mental health and wellbeing. The 2025 campaign theme, "Wherever you are, so are we," speaks to the availability and versatility of the social work profession, highlighting its critical role in addressing a growing and universal problem – access to care.

The overarching objective of Two-Spirit and Indigenous LGBTQQIA+ Celebration and Awareness Day is to raise community awareness and education of Two-Spirit people in regions where there are scheduled celebrations of the (re)integration of Two-Spirit people within their respective Nations, peoples, and communities. Through public demonstrations, proclamations, and community celebrations, Two-Spirit people will be acknowledged and supported as they reclaim their roles and spaces they have always occupied as Two-Spirit and Indigenous LGBTQQIA+ people.
