Making Connections: Integration in Mental Health and Addiction

CAMH Annual Report to the Community 2006 - 2007

Transforming Lives is much more than a slogan to us at CAMH. It is our promise, as Canada’s leading mental health and addiction facility, to play a leading role in the evolution of our health care system and to help build more inclusive communities around us.

This year’s annual report demonstrates the steps we are taking to transform lives—in our communities, across Ontario and internationally. We couldn’t take these steps alone, however. That’s why we have chosen to focus on integration and connection in this year’s report. So much of what we do now, and what we aspire to do in the future, depends on our ability to better define the role of CAMH in the overall health care system. It depends on our ability to better co-ordinate and integrate our own core areas—care, research, education, policy, and health promotion and prevention. And it depends upon stronger connections with our community partners.

We have achieved tremendous results, and yet in many ways our work is just getting started.
