🚨 “There is a crisis in child and youth mental health that we can’t solve without addressing workforce shortages. Too many families are turning to hospitals in distress because of long wait times and a lack of treatment availability at community-based child and youth mental health centres. This is further exacerbated by frontline vacancies and high turnover because our wages can’t compete with hospitals and schools.” – Tatum Wilson, CEO, CMHO Read our joint news release with ten community health associations to learn more: https://lnkd.in/eK3wgZAP #ForUsForYou #MentalHealth #CommunityHealth

Along with the broader community health sector, Ontario’s child and youth mental health and addictions sector is facing a staffing crisis due to a growing wage gap. CMHO is coming together with ten community health associations covering primary care, home and community care, long-term care, and others, to shine a light on this crisis and advocate for solutions to close the wage gap between community-based providers and other sectors like education and hospitals.
