1 in 5 young Ontarians will face a mental health challenge this year, yet many still face barriers to care.
We can’t build a strong system for young people without investing in the people who deliver that care.

AMHO’s Q1 kickoff meeting gave staff time to reflect on our successes over the past year and focus on the important work ahead.

The absence of a health human resources strategy for the community mental health and addictions sector has led to increased staffing shortages and longer wait times for services.
It’s time to invest in the people that support well-being of Ontarians.

Great first meeting with Associate Minister @TheThanigasalam & AMHO CEO, Jennifer Holmes Weier.
By strengthening our workforce, increasing access to mental health & addictions programs, and opening more supportive housing, we can better support the health needs of all Ontarians.

Since 2016, Ontario has only added ~2,300 new units of mental health and addictions supportive housing. That's less than 300 units per year on average.
It's time to invest in the people and programs which keep our communities healthy & safe.
