With the increasing demand for services, children’s mental health agencies across Canada are struggling to keep up. Here are a few trends in mental health and mental health service delivery we’ve encountered…

More Complex Needs – The demand on the system to adapt to the needs of more diverse populations is growing.

Increased Demand, No Money – As a result of great advocacy and reduced stigma, more people are accessing services. Funding is not proportional.

Digital Services – New digital solutions present incredible opportunities. Risk, uncertainty and skillset underinvestment are slowing adoption.

Accessing Services – Barriers such as geography and work obligations prevent a parent from getting their child to care.

To read about the work we’re doing to support change in the sector, check out our newest quarterly project summaries HERE.

At the completion of a project, we create knowledge translation documents so that other organizations can learn from our work and implement the solutions for themselves. You can view and download them from our knowledge hub.
