The Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) has released a report, The State of Mental Health in Canada 2024, which uses data from across the country to provide a detailed look at the landscape of mental health, addictions, and substance use health care in Canada. 

Some highlights:

Mental health care is grossly underfunded, and mental health is often a privilege available only to those who can afford it.

Access to care depends on where you live and Indigenous and racialized people face the greatest barriers to care.

The Cundill Centre for Child and Youth Depression at CAMH is excited to announce the upcoming CARIBOU CBT Training Course for Facilitators, an interactive, evidence-based program designed to enhance your ability to treat depression in children and youth (ages 13-24). This training is ideal for healthcare professionals such as social workers, occupational therapists, and psychologists looking to deepen their knowledge of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
