CAMH in the Media

Coverage of CAMH mentions compiled by Public Affairs

This month's media coverage was focused on innovation. From research and treatment to changes taking place at CAMH's Queen St. site, we continue to move forward as a leader in addiction and mental health. The CAMH monitor reported surprising results on cannabis use among Ontario adults. The Globe and Mail’s Life section published an article on schizophrenia and early intervention, featuring interviews with CAMH clinicians, researchers and clients, while media also focused on Dr. Arturas Petronis and his team’s discovery of epigenetic changes in individuals with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. In a three-part series, the Parkdale-Liberty Villager chronicled CAMH's past and let their readers know what to expect as CAMH continues its Queen Street redevelopment. 

The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) regularly provides expert information on addictions and mental health treatment, research, education and advocacy to the public through the media. Here are some recent samples of CAMH coverage. Click on the headline below to read the full story (external link):
