If you are looking for information about addiction and mental health services available in your community or for healthcare advice please call 811, if this is an emergency please dial 911.

This page is for the new Centre for Child and Adolescent Mental Health being built in the community of Hounsfield Heights - Briar Hill in Calgary, Alberta.

This page will be updated regularly throughout the building and development of the centre with information and opportunities to provide feedback.

Alberta Health Services (AHS), in partnership with the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation is building a centre for child and adolescent mental health in Calgary.

Once built, the new facility will provide community-based mental health services to help ensure mentally healthy futures for children and adolescents in our community.

Highlights

By offering these services in the community, clients and their families will have access to more readily available services to help meet their needs. It is our hope that all of our clients have access to the services they need in a timely manner.

The new facility will be home to a mental health walk-in service, intensive outpatient therapy and a day hospital program.

    We are fortunate to have the opportunity to work with a Family Advisory Council (FAC) and a Child and Youth Advisory Council (CYAC). Over 40 volunteer client and family advisors contribute their time, insights and voices as members of these councils. The groups are engaged regularly to provide input and feedback regarding various aspects of the project to build the Centre, including both the physical design of the building and the programs and services. Please click here for a summary of the topics that clients and families have consulted on.

  • Patient and Family Advisory Councils Launched

    In late 2018, AHS began recruiting Patient and Family Advisors to share experiences, expertise and perspectives as the Centre is built. The advisors work in partnership with us through two councils: a Child and Youth Advisory Council, and a Family Advisory Council.

    The Patient and Family Advisors are volunteers who help us develop programs and services that are responsive to the needs of patients and provide the right care, in the right place, at the right time.

    Active recruitment for the advisory councils is currently closed. If you are interested in future advisor opportunities with the Centre you can email: ccamh.calgary@ahs.ca.

    To learn more about other Patient and Family Advisor opportunities please visit the ahs.ca website, here.
