Making Connections through artistic expression

Good mental health is essential to everyone's well-being. It is a sign of a healthy society. The Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) believes that to achieve good mental health, we must strive for balance in our lives. Making connections - reaching out to those who can help us find that balance - will guide us on the journey to well-being.

Connecting with others to improve the quality of life and care for people affected by mental health problems has been at the heart of the CMHA since it was formed in 1918.

For those living with mental illness, as well as their families, friends and colleagues, reaching out to the CMHA connects them with information, education, support, and many other helpful services and resources in their community. With CMHA offices in more than 135 communities coast-to-coast-to-coast, there are many opportunities to make connections.

Today, we understand that to achieve good mental health, we need to expand our circle of support. The CMHA is achieving this by connecting with our partners in the mental health community and beyond, including organizations that address the many issues that impact on mental health. Being part of Mindscapes is an example of such a partnership.
