Cornwall’s First Men’s Mental Health Summit: Empowering Through Connection

On November 9th, CMHA Champlain East hosted Cornwall’s first-ever Men’s Mental Health Summit, a transformative event that brought nearly 100 participants together to address the often-overlooked crisis of men’s mental health.

With a lineup of inspiring speakers, impactful discussions, and actionable insights, the event fostered an environment of openness and understanding, breaking down barriers and stigma surrounding men’s mental wellness.

Someone's Someone

CMHA Champlain East launches “Someone’s Someone” – a provincial campaign to humanize substance use and drive change

In Ontario, addiction is more than a statistic—it’s a deeply personal crisis affecting our families, friends and communities. Behind every number, there’s a story. Behind every story, there’s a person—a person who was someone’s someone.

Today, we’re proud to launch the “Someone’s Someone” campaign, an initiative aimed at shining light on these stories and rallying for the compassionate, evidence-based support our loved ones deserve.

Why this campaign matters right now
