Webinar: Youth Wellbeing in Ontario

Highlights from the Ontario Student Drug Use and Health Survey (OSDUHS) and Youth Wellness Hubs Ontario (YWHO)

Youth wellbeing is a priority within Ontario. Though youth report challenges with substance use and psychological wellbeing, many report not knowing where to go to access the mental health and health care they need. Integrated models of care that are designed to improve access to care for youth with health, mental health or substance use concerns can help address those issues.

Date/Time: Wednesday January 23, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. - 12:00p.m.
