Peaks For Change – Impacting Mental Health
Peaks for Change has been making a difference for those struggling with mental health challenges since 2016.
We are excited to announce our newest fundraising effort will support direct counseling for ANYONE who needs it.
With the help of our valued donors, we are currently raising money to support those in our community who are in need of direct counseling. Our special events throughout the year also help raise funds to assist in these funding efforts.
Check out our events page to learn about our next event. We hope you can join us!

Impact Story
Thank you very much for Peaks for Change Foundation’s generous gift in support of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health’s redevelopment, and in particular for directing this support towards construction of the CAMH Bridging Clinic, part of the brand new Crisis and Critical Care Building, which will open towards the end of 2020.
Clients who visit the Bridging Clinic can count on receiving immediate care for their urgent mental health needs on a walk-in basis. When the new Crisis and Critical Care Building opens, this high-quality care will be delivered in a spacious, modern environment co-located on the same campus with all of CAMH’s mental illness and addictions inpatient units.
Thank you for partnering with us to build better tomorrows for our patients!
