Your mental wellness journey shapes your overall quality of life — and it begins with you — the moment you decide to take personal responsibility for your own mental health. You are never alone on this journey, supported by friends, family, co-workers, and peers — your Circle of Care.
As an OTR volunteer, you’ll be empowered on your own wellbeing journey while gaining the confidence and the tools to support others.

Continuing the Journey
In April 2025, OTR launched The OTR Academy, a strategic initiative to deepen your wellbeing journey by building on the skills and foundation of the Wellbeing Ambassador – to further empower you with empathic communication, active listening and other advanced evidence-based courses – as a Wellbeing Champion and Wellbeing Mentor – for you to better support the mental wellbeing of your team and your loved ones in your own care circles.
