Eastern Jack Summit

Eastern Jack Summit: November 25 - 26, 2022

Jack.org is proud to announce our first ever Eastern Jack Summit, which brings together the next generation of mental health leaders and advocates from across Eastern Canada (New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island) to discuss the most pressing mental health issues you face in your communities!

Previously known as Atlantic Summit, we are really excited to bring you a brand-new Summit focused on the mental health landscape in Eastern Canada, all in an effort to expand the conversation on mental health and deliver more impactful programming.


At Eastern Jack Summit, delegates will participate in workshops, engage with keynote speakers and other thought leaders, and work with fellow advocates from across their region to foster understanding, connection and community. The day will be spent sharing lived expertise and collaborating on goals and ideas, with the ultimate goal of strengthening the mental health movement across the Atlantic provinces!
