Walk the Talk on Mental Health Survey
June
21, 2011 For mentally ill patients, their families, and their friends
who deal with the effects of this disease, it continues to be a struggle to
obtain the appropriate help. Lack of resources, multiplicity and
fragmentation of the mental health and addiction services has a profound
effect on communities, workplaces, and the people who interact in these
environments.
This survey is an initial assessment of the impacts of
mental illness on these Divisions/Sectors. This information will be used to
frame future joint campaigns and pick up on recommendations to the Ontario
Government’s 2009 discussion paper: Every Door is the Right Door Toward a
10-Year Mental Health and Addictions Strategy. That document lays down the
framework to combat the effects of mental illness.
