Grounds For Discussion
We’ve partnered with Shopbike Coffee Roasters on a special edition coffee fundraiser to support youth mental health and substance use initiatives across Huron and Perth Counties.
We believe mental health and addiction resources should be just as easy to access as a cup of coffee. That’s why every bag includes mental health and addiction resources on the back, making it easier to find information about support for yourself or someone you care about.
All funds raised go directly toward youth mental health and substance use initiatives in our communities. We’re grateful to Shopbike Coffee Roasters for partnering with us to make this fundraiser possible!
Keep an eye on our website and social media as we will be selling these bags at local events throughout November and December.

National Addictions Awareness Week
National Addictions Awareness Week (NAAW) is an opportunity to raise awareness about substance use, challenge stigma, and encourage more open conversations about addiction and recovery.
At Tanner Steffler Foundation, we believe everyone has a role to play in creating more understanding and supportive communities. Whether it's educating yourself, learning about harm reduction, checking in on loved ones, or being mindful of the language we use, small actions can make a meaningful difference.
This week, we encourage everyone to take some time to learn, share resources, and help break down the stigma surrounding substance use.

Christmas In Bayfield Free Skate
As the colder months settle in, Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) can have an impact on mood, energy, and overall mental wellbeing. We believe that staying active, connecting with others, and having opportunities to get out of the house can make a positive difference, especially during the winter months.
That's why TSF is excited to sponsor a FREE family ice skating! We want to create opportunities for young people to get active, spend time with friends and family, build connections, and enjoy something fun during the colder months.
Join us Sunday, November 15th, from 1:00–3:00 PM at the Bayfield Community Centre & Arena for FREE ice skating!
We hope to see you there!

2026-2027 Youth Mental Health and Substance Use Survey
We’re excited to announce that the Tanner Steffler Foundation will be running another Youth Mental Health & Substance Use Survey, funded by The White Squirrel Cares Foundation. The survey will be open to youth ages 12–29 who live in Huron or Perth County and will give young people an opportunity to share their experiences around mental health and substance use in our communities.
The information collected will help the Tanner Steffler Foundation and other local resources better understand the behaviours, attitudes, and patterns of young people in Huron and Perth Counties, while identifying ways we can continue improving support and services for youth in our communities. More information about the survey, including when it will open and how to participate, will be announced soon. Keep an eye on our social media and website for updates!
