Approximately 1 in 5 children and youth in Ontario has a mental health challenge and 70% of mental health challenges have their onset in childhood or youth. Early identification and intervention are crucial to improve educational performance and long-term health outcomes. There is a significant need for services that immediately connect children and youth to a professional therapist. This program will provide participants with key information about tools and resources to identify and support children and youth (up to their 18th birthday) with mental health concerns.
This program has received an unrestricted educational grant or in-kind support from Strides Toronto.
