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.

We want to hear from you - your feedback and input is important in the design and development of the new centre.
Please fill out this short survey and share it with your network to help us build a centre that helps improve mental health for children and youth in Calgary.
The survey will be open until July 1, 2020 and we will share a report summarizing what we heard following that.
We ask that you register in order to take the survey so we can keep you up to date as the project progresses and share new opportunities for input as they are available. We only ask for a screen name (of your choice) and an email address, any other information you share is up to you.
The new centre will be built on existing AHS land where Youth Addiction Services has been operating for more that 30 years.
