My Story…

What happens after young adults receive a diagnosis of a serious mental illness? 

After crisis care in hospital, what's next? 

Where are the "wrap around" supports everyone knows are needed? 

How can we prevent revolving door reliance on emergency psychiatric care? 

Sadly, the answer to these questions is often bleak: "not much", "not enough" and "it's complicated."  

Ontarians need a residential treatment program like Eli's Place to close this gap in care. Young adults with serious mental illness and those who love them deserve this basic level of care. 

With your support we can make it happen. 

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.
