Everyone needs care. Only some of us will get it.
Take ActionMental health care is basic care. It’s not a frill. It’s not an add-on. But Canadians can’t get it.
Millions of Canadians are struggling and don’t know where to turn. Only some of us will get the care we need. That’s because it’s not available, or it isn’t covered by public health insurance. We need mental health care that is publicly funded and free. We need universal mental health care.
The Act for Mental Health campaign is supported by thousands of people from across the country and a network of Canadian organizations, all pressing our leaders to fund mental health care now.

About Act for Mental Health
Act for Mental Health is an advocacy campaign led by the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) that rallies Canadians to press our leaders for universal mental health care. A growing number of Canadian organizations stand together in asking for the same thing: to make mental health and substance use health care available to everyone under public health insurance. For people in Canada, Act for Mental Health is a chance to stand up, be counted, and use our voices to press our leaders for universal mental health care. Care that serves and supports every single one of us. Care that enables us all to thrive. Act for Mental Health is a campaign, a rallying cry, a movement for mental health care that is truly universal. Take action.
