Stay Connected Mental Health Project
The Stay Connected Mental Health Project is a visionary initiative made possible by a generous donation by Fred and Elizabeth Fountain, in memory of their son Alex.
We are shifting the culture of how youth and their families transition from paediatric to adult-based mental health services, and supporting collaborative pathways between universities and mental health and addiction services when needed.
