This has been such a useful and inspiring thread, thank you for posting it Karyn, and thank you for being so open about your experiences Karen and Betty Lou!

Deana is correct: the Mental Health and Addictions Strategy focuses on children and youth for the first three years and years 4-10 focus on everyone else from transitional aged youth to adults to older adults. We're only in year 4 of the strategy so I imagine there will be considerable focus on our aging population and how services and supports will need to be appropriately matched to an older age cohort.
