Woll saved, we scored! Together, we raised $80,000 for mental health care.

During the 2024/25 season, every home win with Joseph in net unlocked a $5,000 donation from to support better mental health care for everyone. Plus, when the Leafs earned a home game shutout, that donation doubled.

Thanks to every save, every win and every fan who followed along, this campaign made a real impact – raising funds, awareness and above all else, hope for those experiencing mental illness.

We’re so grateful for your support, which will help expand access to mental health and addiction care for all.

Let’s keep building a future where no one is left behind.

Have you noticed how this summer’s record heat is more than just uncomfortable?

Dr. Sean A. Kidd, Co-Director of the Institute for Mental Health Policy Research at CAMH, explains how rising temperatures and extreme weather have major impacts on mental health and wellbeing —especially the most exposed communities.

“This summer’s record heat affects more than just our comfort—it impacts mental health too. Extreme weather events and rising temperatures can cause trauma and strain, especially for young people and risk-exposed communities. At CAMH, we witness firsthand how climate change impacts mental well-being, brain health and development, and increases the risk of acute health crises for many of our patients. We’re committed to tackling these challenges head-on through research, treatment, and policy.

Join us in putting mental health at the heart of the climate conversation.”

Today is National PTSD Day.

Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition triggered by experiencing or witnessing traumatic events, such as accidents, assaults, or war.

Common symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, and heightened anxiety.

If you're struggling, you are not alone.

Fortunately, PTSD is treatable. Therapy options like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and medications such as antidepressants can help manage symptoms and support recovery.

Men’s Mental Health Month and Father’s Day highlight the critical challenges men encounter in accessing mental health care.

Despite the prevalence of mental health issues, less than 30% of men seek professional help, often due to stigma and societal expectations. This silence contributes to a crisis with devastating consequences.

CAMH is committed to changing this reality. Your support enables us to provide effective treatments and raise awareness, encouraging men to seek help without shame.

Your support will help us continue this vital work and protect the mental health of men across Canada.

June is Men’s Mental Health Month.

Men’s mental health is a silent crisis. Many men struggle alone, held back by stigma and societal expectations. In Canada, men account for 75% of all su***de deaths and a staggering 40% of men would not talk to anyone about their mental health.

Having mental health conversations with the men in your life can have a powerful impact. It's time to break the devastating silence surrounding men's mental health.
