One customer at a time, doing it right since 1969.
At ACCESS Open Minds, we are a pan-Canadian network dedicated to transforming youth mental health care across Canada. Our national network connects youth, families/carers, researchers, service providers, and policy makers to improve youth mental health care across the country. With 16 locations and growing, our sites can be found in urban, rural, remote, First Nations, and Inuit communities from Nova Scotia to Alberta, and up to the Northwest Territories.
Our Mission
Our mission is to improve the quality and access to youth mental health services, understand the impact of these services, engage youth and families in the development and delivery of these services, and lead innovation in the field of youth mental health. We believe that by working together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of youth and their families.
Our Services
We offer a range of services, including research, training, and capacity building for mental health service providers, as well as resources and guides for anyone interested in youth mental health. Our network spans from Nova Scotia to Alberta and up to the Northwest Territories, and we are committed to providing high-quality services that meet the unique needs of each community.
Our Approach
Our approach is centered around patient-oriented research, which means that we involve youth and families in every stage of the research process. We believe that this approach leads to more effective and relevant research that can be translated into practice and policy. We also recognize the importance of cultural safety and humility, and we strive to provide services that are respectful and responsive to the needs of Indigenous and other diverse populations.
Our Impact
Our research has shown that our approach can lead to significant improvements in youth mental health outcomes, including reductions in symptoms of anxiety and depression, and improvements in overall well-being. We are committed to continuing to evaluate and improve our services, and to sharing our findings with others to advance the field of youth mental health.
