Canadian Mental Health Association, Vancouver-Fraser

Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) is one of the Canada’s most established national mental health charities. Our vision is mentally healthy people in a healthy society. As the nation-wide leader and champion for mental health, CMHA helps people access the community resources to build resilience and support recovery from mental illness or addiction. We do this by building capacity, influencing policy, providing services and developing resources. 

The CMHA Vancouver-Fraser Branch was founded in 2015 through an amalgamation of the Delta, Simon Fraser and Vancouver-Burnaby branches, but CMHA has been serving the Metro Vancouver area since 1958. At CMHA, Vancouver-Fraser, we believe everyone deserves to be mentally healthy and live in a healthy community. By offering community-based mental health education, services, and supports for all ages, CMHA, Vancouver-Fraser contributes to the long-term health and wellbeing of our communities. We have three pillars of work:

1. Wellness and Community Inclusion 
2. Early Intervention and Prevention 
3. Mental Health Promotion
