Lead the way

We believe
It’s possible to design and deliver excellent mental health and addictions care and make sure someone’s first mental health and/or addictions crisis is their last.
Under the collaborative leadership of the Canadian Mental Health Association York Region and South Simcoe (CMHA-YRSS) Branch, alongside our 20-plus partners and the Ontario Government, we are co-creating The Centre.
Together, we will create a leading-edge facility
One that supports mental health, addictions, and community care, and welcomes individuals and families from across the region.
Scheduled to open in 2026, The Centre will be a 24/7 resource for individuals (12+) and families experiencing a mental health and/or addictions crisis, providing immediate and compassionate support.
Believe in a future where mental health and addictions care is prioritized, stigma is erased, and every individual receives personalized, compassionate treatment. Your gift isn’t just support, it’s a powerful statement of your commitment to changing lives.
Collaborating with our region
From design to delivery, we aim to address the most pressing challenges by collaborating with people with lived and living experience, family members and diverse communities that represent the mosaic of identities in our region.
We will create better connections and transitions for every individual who is accessing multiple services. We are grateful for our 20-plus partners, including hospitals, paramedics, police and other community health organizations that are working together to make care seamless.
Lead the way to better mental health and addictions care.
