ABOUT
Raising awareness for the importance of men’s mental health
Hi Dad Foundation is a registered national charity that was formed in 2022 as an outcome of Father's Day on the Hill, a non-partisan initiative founded by Member of Parliament Matt Jeneroux. The event is hosted each year in partnership with Members of Parliament from all major political parties as a way of bringing together Canadians and highlighting the importance of the mental health of young men and fathers. Over the years, the initiative has evolved to incorporate awareness around mental health for all men and boys, no matter age, stage of life, or circumstance.
