With Carlee Campbell, Bcomm, JD, National Director of Operations, EHN Canada

According to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, only half of Canadians experiencing a major depressive episode receive “potentially adequate care”. The American Addiction Centers have established the most common barriers to finding addiction treatment: financial/cost, geographic location, stigma, and concurrent disorder treatment availability. Another major barrier to seeking out treatment for mental health and addiction is often not knowing what type of program will help the individual. EHN Canada prides itself on providing accessible care through a multitude of avenues, including partnerships with various government entities and referent partners. Join Carlee Campbell, National Director of Operations at EHN Canada, as she discusses ongoing barriers to treatment and methods to overcome said barriers. 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Examine mental health and addiction treatment types and options
  • Understand how location and finances can affect where you receive treatment 
  • Discuss ways to overcome obstacles and challenges when seeking treatment
  • Showcase EHN Canada’s commitment to providing both accessible and excellent care
