We’re excited to announce the launch of our latest online toolkit, Knowledge mobilization: Doing more with what you know. It’s a practical guide to sharing knowledge in your community and beyond.

Join us, and our youth suicide prevention coaches, on Oct 23 at 1 pm for this important live chat.

When the Centre began in 2004, the Ontario child and youth mental health sector was in a very different place than it is today. We opened our doors with a small staff and a big vision of “Daring to dream of an integrated system that meets the mental health needs of children, youth and families.”

Taking the pulse of the child and youth mental health sector in Ontario

As partners and colleagues in the field ease into transition, we here at the Centre wanted to take this chance to introduce you to some new and familiar faces: our knowledge brokers.

I have a great deal of admiration and respect for the people I meet and work with on a daily basis. They are all, regardless of role or responsibility, working towards changing the life of a child, youth or family for the better.

System change is an opportunity to build on the innovations that many communities have developed and implemented.

The imminent system change is an unparalleled opportunity to innovate and set the foundation for a system that works better for children and youth. There is no better time to be bold and to build stronger partnerships in our communities.

This is a thrilling time for our field, and one that offers the chance for people and services to pull together as never before.

In case you missed it, our annual report is now available. It may be about us, but it’s also about you. So it’s kind of awesome (like you!).
