About Us

Taskeen Wellness is a team of Canadian-Muslim doctors, social workers, and psychologists whose mission is to help communities better access wellness knowledge and mental health care. Our goal is to provide culturally responsive education, mentorship and support to interested community residents (parents, youth and religious leaders) who wish to be trained as Wellness Advocates

Communities will work with the Taskeen Wellness team to adapt our curriculum to the unique social needs and cultural sensitivities of your community. Wellness Advocates will attend our education program to learn important skills such as communication, relationship building and problem solving skills. 

Equipped with the new knowledge, perspectives, skills and ongoing support by our team, Wellness Advocates will make a positive impact on their families, neighbourhoods and social networks.

Our ultimate goal is to partner with communities to build resilience, remove mental health stigma and help others who are struggling with their mental health.
