Hi everyone. I am parent who has lived experience with family members living with depression. I also have children who deal with anxiety and suicidal thoughts, and have accessed mental health services through the hospitals and the community. I am a recent graduate of the Bachelor of Social Work Program(BSW) at Ryerson University. I am currently volunteering at Peel Children's Center on 2 Family Engagement Committees. I am trying along with other caregivers and service providers to create a framework that will hopefully improve service delivery and accessibility and honor the voice and knowledge families and youth hold when it comes to their experience of mental health.
