What is Talk for 5?
Talk for 5 is more than a mental health initiative, it’s a movement to spark belonging, connection, and understanding. It’s built on a simple truth: a five-minute conversation can brighten a day, bridge differences, and even change a life.
Talk for 5 bands are for anyone who believes in community, care, and celebrating the diversity that makes us stronger. Whether you’re a student, teacher, newcomer, caregiver, neighbour, or simply someone who wants to share a moment, Talk for 5 is for you.
By wearing it, you’re opening the door to conversation and saying, “You matter. Your story matters. I’m here to listen.”
Founder & Mission
Proudly Canadian
Talk for 5 is proudly founded and based in Canada, inspired by Canadian values of inclusion, kindness, and community support.

We may be small, but we’re making a big impact; one conversation at a time.
