With Men’s Voices, we make space to honour the strength and also the vulnerability of our men in each of their unique journeys.
The Men’s Voices book is a soul-driven photographic exploration of Men’s Voices, and the lived experience of persevering in the face of adversity. For more on the origins of this project, and to purchase your copy of the book, head to the CMHA official page. We hope that like us, you too will be inspired to take action and support Men’s Voices in your community.
Telus Vancouver produced this series into a documentary “Into the Light” which you can watch here on our Facebook page.
