In this week's episode, we speak to Sylvia Massinon, a Social Worker & Educator, about resources available to farmers that are in distress.

Based in Manitoba, Sylvia's role includes educating the public and training volunteers for The Manitoba Farm, Rural & Northern Support Services (MFRNSS), which provides telephone and online counseling to farmers, rural and northern Manitobans. The goal of the telephone and online services is to provide non-judgemental counseling, support, information, and referrals for people in distress and/or crisis. While this line is targeted to Manitoba farmers, Sylvia kindly shares her time speaking to us about the overall importance and availability of support services to farmers across Canada.
