About

The CMHA, Nipissing Regional Branch is dedicated to building a community which accepts people with mental illness and promotes mental wellness.

Story

A publicly funded charitable organization, we engage in programs and activities designed to promote partnership, cooperation and accountability among all those concerned with mental health: consumers, family, service providers and the community. Several of CMHA Nipissing’s programs are funded by the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care. We serve the district of Nipissing and the Northeast quadrant of Parry Sound.

The CMHA Nipissing Regional Branch offers a variety of services such as Social Recreation Services, Housing Services, Case Management and Outreach Services, Justice Services and Mental Health Promotion, Information and Education Services for people living with psychiatric disabilities. It also provides mental health information to the community.

CMHA Nipissing believes that all citizens should have timely access to needed mental health services and be free of discrimination. CMHA takes an innovative approach to involve the entire community in the generation of an informed and coordinated response to the mental health needs of the region’s population.
