Today, Minister of Health Christine Elliott and Associate Minister of Mental Health Michael Tibollo unveiled government’s mental health and addictions strategy, Roadmap to Wellness: A Plan to Build Ontario’s Mental Health and Addictions System. The plan, it is said, will provide a clear path forward toward offering Ontarians easier access to higher-quality care and supports in the community, which government also believes will significantly support them in their goal to end hallway health care.

This plan comes following “extensive consultations” in communities across Ontario over the past year, which highlighted key challenges and barriers to access for mental health and addictions services and which the Roadmap seeks to address.
