This Remembrance Day, we honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of Canada’s veterans. Their dedication to protecting peace and freedom has shaped our country.

But many of those who have served continue to face unseen wounds. 1 in 10 veterans live with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and many more navigate ongoing mental health and addictions challenges.

Today and every day, we honour and extend our understanding, compassion, and support to all those who have served. We also recognize the importance of ensuring they can access the care they need and deserve.

Today, the AMHO team came together from across Ontario to reflect on key accomplishments from Q2 and align on our priorities for Q3.

The meeting was a great opportunity to connect, exchange ideas, and realign around our shared goal of strengthening Ontario’s mental health and addictions system by supporting the vital work of our members across the province.

A big thank you to AMHO’s Board of Directors for coming together this week for our annual Board Retreat, a time to reflect, plan, and look ahead to the future of AMHO and Ontario’s mental health and addiction sector. Your leadership and commitment continue to guide AMHO’s work and drive positive change for the people and communities we serve.

AMHO is also deeply grateful to our members Casey House Toronto, Fred Victor, and Progress Place Clubhouse for warmly welcoming our Directors into your space, and sharing more about the incredible work you’re doing every day to support people across the province.

Finally, AMHO would like to thank Canada’s Minister of Public Safety the Hon. Gary Anandasangaree and Canada’s Fentanyl Czar Kevin Brosseau for meeting with us to discuss a path forward to address the toxic drug and opioid crisis, and to strengthen supports for clients, service providers, and communities across Ontario.

Together, we’re building a stronger, more connected system of care.

During World Mental Health Day, we’re reminded that when we break stigma through understanding, we move closer to creating a province where everyone feels supported on their journey to wellness.

Too often, people experience mental health challenges in ways that overlook the real causes of distress, such as under resourced systems, social inequities, and the weight of stigma.

Our members are helping change this narrative by providing compassionate, person-centred care across the continuum of mental health and addictions care, meeting people with care instead of judgement.

Today and every day, we thank AMHO members for their dedication to ensuring that everyone has access to the support they deserve, wherever they are on their recovery journey.

On the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour the Survivors of residential schools, remember the children who never returned home, and recognize the strength of their families and communities.

The harms of colonial systems, including residential schools, continue to reverberate today. Intergenerational trauma contributes to inequities in mental health and addictions; inequities that require action, not just reflection.

At AMHO, we are committed to advancing reconciliation in our sector by supporting culturally safe, community-led care and working together alongside Indigenous partners to help build systems that foster healing, justice, and wellness.
