Mental Health Strategies

Best Practices > Mental Health Promotion > Mental Health Strategies

The Network is conducting an environmental scan of mental health strategies of Canadian post-secondary institutions.  Our goal is to analyse and identify theoretical approaches adopted, common components, and key elements to assist post-secondary institutions in the development or review of their own campus mental health strategy. We are particularly interested in the evaluation frameworks and assessment/evaluation methodology of campus mental health strategies.  If you would like to consider submitting your mental health strategy as an emerging or best practice, please contact info@bp-net.ca.
