My Story…
Eli's Place is an essential but missing piece of the mental health puzzle that we need to ensure takes it's essential place in the healthcare landscape.
If one loss of life is too many, what does 4,000 deaths by suicide annually in Canada say about the necessity for this resource?
Please give deeply.
Description
For the 119,000 young adults in Ontario grappling with serious mental illness, access to effective treatment is grossly inadequate. The cost in lives lived with debilitating challenges or lost to early death is far too great. The vision of Eli’s Place aims to bring hope. A first-of-its-kind in Canada, Eli’s Place is modelled after a leading rural, residential long-term treatment centre with proven success. Programs that incorporate therapeutic work, specialized care and skills training will offer a path to recovery for people in this underserved age group, giving them the tools to heal and move from simply surviving to living.
