Volunteers Needed For Mental Health and Addictions Project in Fort Erie

The Niagara-Ontario Health Team is conducting a study on mental health and addictions services

The Niagara-Ontario Health Team wants to hear from young people in Fort Erie. 

The group is conducting a mental health and addictions pilot project in the area. 

The organization is looking for people aged 18 to 25 who recently used emergency services for mental health or addictions care. 

It says it's looking to address gaps in community services for these issues. 

"We wonder if access to community resources to assist 18 to 25-year-olds who may experience challenges related to mental health and addictions in the southern portions of the Niagara region differs from the larger city centres like St. Catharines and Niagara Falls," said Hrishikesh Navare, the NOHTÉSON’s Project Manager for Mental Health and Addictions

Anyone interested in signing up can contact Josie Faccini,  the NOHT-ÉSON’s Engagement Specialist, at engagement@noht-eson.ca or by phone at 905-933-4149.
