CAMH womenmind

Inspired and empowered by the work of CAMH, members of the womenmind™ community connect with and learn from each other while driving change for women’s mental health and women in science.

We aim to achieve three bold objectives by prioritizing the narratives, bodies and minds of women:

1. Increasing awareness of the gender gap in the sciences

2. Advancing women in the sciences

3. Advancing research into women’s mental health, locally and globally

womenmind raises funds to: Recruit new scientists, provide early career support, provide research and leadership grant opportunities, offer a mentoring program for women scientists and host a global research symposium. These initiatives are all oriented around furthering women-centered research, while promoting the careers of women in science.

“Women” refers to a broad gender categorization that does not necessarily relate to one’s sex recorded at birth. We use the term for anyone who self-identifies as such, regardless of gender expression or gender identity.
