La présence de sections sur les campus postsecondaires permet aux étudiants de mener un changement réel et local. Chaque communauté est différente et mérite des solutions qui lui conviennent. Lorsque les jeunes prennent les rênes, ils peuvent développer des initiatives en santé mentale qui répondent aux besoins uniques de nos pairs. C'est la force des sections.
