Abstract
This research investigated whether a mental health literacy resource could increase Grade 12 students’ mental health literacy. Bachelor of Education students (N = 8) from a university in rural Atlantic Canada created a board game and mental health seminar based on the resource. They applied the resource through the board game and seminar to Grade 12 students at two local high schools. There were positive albeit modest outcomes across a number of measures related to mental health literacy and post-secondary schooling preparation. Participants regarded the resource as helpful, and they were likely to recommend it to their peers. This resource holds promise for supporting students as they transition from high school to post-secondary settings.

Résumé
Cette recherche visait à déterminer si une ressource de littératie en santé mentale pouvait augmenter la littératie en santé mentale des élèves de 12e année. Des étudiants au baccalauréat en éducation (N = 8) d’une université rurale du Canada atlantique ont créé un jeu de société et un séminaire sur la santé mentale basée sur cette ressource. Ils ont appliqué la ressource à travers le jeu de société et le séminaire aux élèves de 12e année de deux écoles secondaires locales. Il y avait des résultats positifs, quoique modérés, pour un certain nombre de mesures liées à la littératie en santé mentale et à la préparation aux études postsecondaires. Les participants considéraient la ressource comme utile et étaient susceptibles de la recommander à leurs pairs. Cette ressource est prometteuse pour le soutien d’élèves dans leur transition du secondaire au postsecondaire.
