February 2018
Hello everyone!
The family education programs for 2018 have begun. The Barrie program is now full. There are two programs scheduled for April and May in Orillia and Wasaga Beach. I will keep family caregiver informed when the posters are coming out and when you can email me to register. The education programs take a break during the summer months and begin again in September. The August e-notice will have the information on dates for those Fall programs.
If you would like ongoing support here are places you can contact. To have 24/7 support, Crisis Services at 705-728-5044 will get you to speak with a live mental health professional. You may also see them in-person by calling the same number and ask for a mobile service.
To inquire about services at Canadian Mental Health Association of Simcoe County, you may call and speak with the On-Duty Worker Monday-Friday (9am-4pm) at 705-726-5033, anyone can also walk-in, without an appointment, and speak with the On-Duty Worker at 88 Mulcaster St., second floor.
Family members interested in speaking with an addiction counselor may contact the On-Duty Worker for this service at 705-726-5033.
911 is always available for immediate, emergency service.
Take care,
Tara Maxwell, Coordinator
