About us
Addictions and Mental Health Ontario (AMHO) represents over 150 organizations that provide front line substance use, addiction and mental health support and services. Some of this work takes place in hospitals, such as the Waypoint Centre for Mental Health Care in Penetanguishene and the Ontario Shores Centre for Mental Health Sciences in Whitby, but most are community-based providers like Thunder Bay Counselling and Sandy Hill Community Health Centre in Ottawa. AMHO members are on the ground in communities across the province, supporting Ontarians through their addiction/substance use and mental health challenges with community-based treatment, counselling, structured psychotherapy, case management, withdrawal management services, peer support, family support, harm reduction supports and supportive housing.
