Sign the Recovery Declaration
The recovery declaration is a call to action for individuals and organizations to not only learn about and promote an understanding of recovery, but to work towards a fully recovery-oriented mental health system across Canada. MHCC will support this process by sharing best, leading and promising practices and by continuing to develop and promote practical tools and resources.
Every endorsement, by individuals or by organizations, is important and will contribute to broadening awareness and strengthening the momentum behind recovery.
