Participant Understanding and Agreement:

This event may include discussion of mental health, lived experience, and personal reflection. These conversations are offered for connection and community, not as therapy, counselling, or medical care. I understand that Frankie D’s Donuts and event facilitators are not providing professional mental health services, diagnoses, or treatment. I acknowledge that while community support people may be present in the space, this event is not a crisis service. If someone is experiencing an immediate mental health crisis or safety concern, facilitators may encourage connection to appropriate emergency or medical supports (such as local crisis lines or hospital services). By checking this box, I confirm that I am choosing to participate with this understanding. *
