Our Voice Matters: Improving Youth Mental Health Care
A collaboration between Healthy Debate and the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) Youth Engagement Initiative.
Mental illness can impact anyone.
It affects all Canadians at some time in their lives, either personally or through family members, friends or colleagues.
It is estimated that 10—20% of Canadian youth are affected by a mental illness.
We spoke to four young people about their own unique experiences of mental health challenges, and with the system and their communities.
They agreed to share their stories, in their own words, to help make change and raise awareness.
