Community Partnerships
The Health & Counselling Centre has a variety of community partnerships. Please see below.
The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) is Canada's largest mental health teaching hospital and one of the world's leading research centres in its field. CAMH is fully affiliated with the University of Toronto and is a Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization Collaborating Centre.
With a dedicated staff of more than 5,000 physicians, clinicians, researchers, educators and support staff, CAMH offers outstanding clinical care to more than 38,000 patients each year. The organization conducts groundbreaking research, provides expert training to health care professionals and scientists, develops innovative health promotion and prevention strategies, and advocates on public policy issues at all levels of government. And through our Foundation, we're working to raise tens of millions of additional dollars to fund new programs and research and augment services.
PAARC is a community agency that provides services to people who are concerned with their own or someone else’s involvement with alcohol, drugs, gambling, gaming or other behavioural dependencies. They also provide programs and services for those living with mental health challenges.
Some of the services and programs offered by PAARC are: counselling; groups; housing support; withdrawal management; drug treatment court; peer support programs; as well as supports for family and friends of those experiencing substance use issues.
HCC has partnered with PAARC and is pleased to offer the services of a PAARC counsellor specifically for UTM students.
