2 Mental Health and Addictions 10yr Strategy ( ) Ontario s Comprehensive Mental Health and Addictions Strategy, Open Minds, Healthy Minds, has four guiding goals: 1. Improve mental health and well-being for all Ontarians 2. Create healthy, resilient, inclusive communities 3. Identify mental health and addictions problems early and intervene 4. Provide timely, high quality, integrated, persondirected health and other human services Ontario took a whole of government approach to demonstrate a stronger response to MHA issues with multiple ministries working together on shared priorities that are making essential contributions to the successful delivery of the Strategy 2

3 Early Outcomes: PHASE 1 Provide children, youth and families with fast access to high quality services Identify and intervene in child and youth mental health and addictions issues early Close critical service gaps for vulnerable children and youth, children and youth at key transition points, and those in remote communities The first three years began with children and youth. The focus was on early intervention and support to protect our children from the many associated costs of mental illness and addictions and help steer them on the road to safe, healthy, and happy futures. 3

4 Council Mandate ( ) Leadership Advisory Council Improved quality of planning and decision-making Enhanced cross-sector collaboration Improved accountability for results Accelerated progress on the Strategy Increased awareness of mental health and addictions issues within and outside of government The Leadership Advisory Council was established in November, 2014 mandated to provide strategic, actionable advice on the cross-sectoral implementation of Phase 2 of the Comprehensive Mental Health and Addictions Strategy. 4

5 Leadership Advisory Council Guiding Principles With sound guiding principles, the Council conducts its work towards the future where every Ontarian enjoys good mental health and well-being throughout their lifetime, and all Ontarians with mental illness or addictions can recover and participate in welcoming, supportive communities 5 ACCESSIBLE EQUITABLE CLIENT CENTERED HIGH PERFORMING RECOVERY ORIENTED GUIDING PRINCIPLES

6 Equity Diversity and equity are core principles of the Strategy. They include recognition of the need for appropriate and accessible services. The Ministry is supporting a parallel engagement process with Indigenous communities to identify where and how they can build on existing initiatives, what culturally appropriate services are needed and what opportunities exist for enhanced cross-sector collaboration. The Ministry is also engaging with LHINs, French Language Health Planning Entities, government partners and other members of the Francophone community to determine efficient ways to address service gaps for Francophones. The Council will be making recommendations regarding the needs of Francophone and Indigenous communities. The Council is committed to applying an equity lens to all of its activities. The Health Equity Impact Assessment Tool is being used to consider the impact on diverse and marginalized communities. The Council is also engaging with the Anti-Racism Secretariat to identify additional mechanisms to support an equity and anti-oppression focus on its work and recommendations 6
