BANA: Be Yourself Magazine Now Available!
The latest issue of the BANA Be Yourself Magazine is now available! By now, we hope you have enjoyed some of the first 12 issues of our publication – a free, mental health and wellness magazine available online and in hard-copy.
What makes this publication so unique is that right alongside contributions from professionals are stories from community activists, cultural influencers, and most importantly those with real life experiences telling their story, in their words. Currently, our global reach includes readership in 52 countries – amazing for a magazine produced entirely in-house at a small, local non-for-profit organization.
Our fall issue (#13) is now available online through the link: www.bana.ca/magazine.
