Understanding the Landscape of Mental Health: Engaging Youth in an Interactive World Café
FY 2014-15
Summary
The purpose of this project is to engage youth to collaboratively determine priorities for future research focused on improving mental health in youth who experience housing instability. To do this, we will conduct an environmental scan of services for youth experiencing housing instability and mental illness in Hamilton, Ontario and engage youth in a World Café™ to discuss their needs. This information will be shared with our community partners: the Social Planning Research Council (SPRC) and the Street Youth Planning Cooperative (SYPC) in Hamilton. The outcome of this planning and dissemination grant will be a collaborative grant application with the SPYC and the SPRC to evaluate the effectiveness of current youth mental health services in meeting the needs of youth experiencing housing instability.
