SMH COMEDY SOCIETY WANTS YOU: TO BE FUNNY!!!

We are currently recruiting comics for our Stand Up For Mental Health class beginning on January 21, 2025.

Founded by award-winning stand up comic and counselor David Granirer who himself suffers from bipolar, Stand Up For Mental Health is an award-winning program that teaches folks with mental health and addiction issues how to perform stand up comedy all about their mental health and addictions journeys.

The course is 6 months long and classes are in-person. Classes are on Tuesdays from 10:45 am -1:45 PM at a location near the Brentwood Skytrain station.

Cost is by sliding scale, NO ONE is EVER EVER turned away for financial reasons!
