An Environmental Scan of Canadian Campus Mental Health Strategies

Developed by the Best Practices Network, the purpose of An Environmental Scan of Canadian Campus Mental Health Strategies is to support post-secondary institutions in their institutional mental health and wellness strategy development, by reporting on a review of Canadian campus mental health strategies.

The Best Practices Network conducted an environmental scan of existing post-secondary mental health strategies across Canada, from 2009 to 2019, and identified common and differing themes with respect to their development process, organizational structure, strategy components, key recommendations, and evaluation.  With this, we offer guiding principles and future directions that post-secondary administrators and practitioners may consider in their strategy development and review process.
