My Story…

On Saturday, October 19th, we walked 5K to help  improve and save the lives of young adults with serious mental illness. By doing so, we honoured the lives and legacies of our son, Eli, and so many others we've lost.  We are so close to reaching the finish line to establish Eli's Place!  Please help us achieve our goal!   

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.
