Strong Roots, Shared Purpose: Bell Let’s Talk Returns to RISE & THRIVE 2026
Bell Let’s Talk joins the YSB Foundation as the Strong Roots Sponsor of RISE & THRIVE 2026, continuing a valued partnership built around supporting youth mental health and well-being.
For years, Bell Let’s Talk has stood alongside YSB and the young people we serve. Their continued support of RISE & THRIVE reflects a shared belief that every young person deserves to feel heard, supported and hopeful about what comes next.
A partnership rooted in care
At YSB, strong roots begin with having someone to turn to—a trusted person, a safe place or the right support at the right time.
Bell Let’s Talk has helped strengthen those roots through its longstanding commitment to mental health. As our 2026 Strong Roots Sponsor, Bell Let’s Talk is helping YSB continue providing compassionate, youth-focused services across Ottawa.
Justice for All Youth
This year, RISE & THRIVE brings our community together around one powerful purpose: Justice for All Youth.
For us, that means ensuring young people can access mental health care, safe housing, employment opportunities and youth justice services without judgment or unnecessary barriers. It means meeting youth where they are and helping them build toward the future they envision.
Growing stronger together
Meaningful change takes root when community partners choose to invest in young people—not only in moments of crisis, but in their long-term well-being and potential.
We are deeply grateful to Bell Let’s Talk for returning to RISE & THRIVE and continuing to grow alongside YSB. Together, we are helping create a community where every young person has the support they need to rise and thrive.
Join us at RISE & THRIVE
RISE & THRIVE 2026 takes place on October 15 at the Horticulture Building at Lansdowne.
