CMHA Calgary
It is Canadian Mental Health Association – Calgary Region’s (CMHA Calgary) mission to be a leader in reducing the impact of mental illness and addiction in community. For more than 65 years, we have provided a person and family-centred integrated service model focused on early intervention and prevention of a mental health or substance use concern that delivers a measurable increase in community resiliency. CMHA Calgary builds awareness and provides education and support for individuals and families living with mental health and/or addiction concern, and a loss by suicide. We provide community-based support programs, including post-discharge/supportive living, suicide bereavement and family support counselling therapy, and peer support programs for families and individuals. We work closely with other community organizations to assist in bridging gaps in the mental health care system and facilitate access to important services and resources. CMHA Calgary strives to improve public understanding of mental health conditions at home, in the community and in the workplace through community education, influencing policy and mental health awareness initiatives.
