My Story…
I am walking in the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon because I want to do what I can to make Eli's Place happen. I love the energy of participating as part of the Eli's Place team and am always encouraged by the support of the Eli's Place community. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, our Eli's Place team have participated actively for four years finding creative and fun ways to walk or run for Hopeful Futures for young adults with serious mental illness. I hope you can support me!
Description
For the 160,000 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.
