The Mental Health Commission of Canada is holding public consultations on a proposed approach to promote more equitable access and outcomes in mental health policy and programs. The IDEALSS framework integrates intersectionality, decolonization, health equity, anti-racism, lived and living experience, social determinants and sex- and gender-based analysis models.
This draft IDEALSS framework is informed by our recent needs assessment report that summarizes findings from a rapid literature review of key frameworks, a cross-framework comparison, and surveys and interviews with internal and external experts and stakeholders on efforts to implement equity-related models.
To review the framework and provide feedback through a short survey, follow this link: https://linktr.ee/mhccpolicy
