These responses are a reminder that women’s mental health is deeply personal and long overdue for the attention it deserves.

Swipe through to read a few of the reasons our community believes this work matters.

Through womenmind at CAMH, we are working to close gaps in research and transform mental health care for women and gender diverse people.

Seeing a lot about ADHD and neurodiversity on social media lately? You're not alone.

More people are talking about neurodivergence than ever before — but what does it actually mean, and how does it connect to mental health?

If you’ve always felt your brain works differently than everyone else, or you’re a parent trying to better understand your child, this webinar is for you.

Join us for a free 1 hour virtual webinar to learn more about neurodiversity and how it shows up across the lifespan.

Hear from a CAMH expert and learn:

- What neurodiversity is and what it isn’t
- The differences between autism, ADHD, and other forms of neurodivergence
- How neurodivergence shows up at different stages of life
- How neurodiversity intersects with mental health
- What strengths based, affirming care looks like and how it improves quality of life

You’ll also have the chance to ask questions during an anonymous live Q&A and receive the webinar recording afterward.

Women’s mental health has been overlooked for too long.

They have been told their mental health struggles were "just a natural part of life" or “just stress.” But "just" isn't a diagnosis.

Across every stage of life, women face unique mental health challenges and deserve research, care and support that truly reflect their experiences, which have been ignored for too long.

At CAMH, we are putting the female brain and experience at the centre of our labs—turning decades of silence into data-driven breakthroughs. Programs like CAMH womenmind are helping lead the change to close gaps in research and transform care for girls, women and gender-diverse individuals.
