The Canadian Alliance on Mental Illness and Mental Health (CAMIMH)

The Canadian Alliance on Mental Illness and Mental Health (CAMIMH) is the national voice for mental health in Canada.

 

Established in 1998, CAMIMH is a member-driven alliance of 18 mental health groups comprised of health care providers and organizations that represent people with mental illness, their families and caregivers.

 

CAMIMH’s strategic objectives are:

 

1. to engage Canadians in a national conversation about mental illness to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness and provide insight into the services and supports available to those living with mental illness; and
    

2. to ensure that mental health policy is placed on the national policy agenda so that persons with lived and living experience of mental illness and their families receive appropriate and timely access to care and support.
