The Canadian Alliance on Mental Illness and Mental Health (CAMIMH) serves as the national voice for mental health in Canada, established in 1998 to advocate for individuals affected by mental illness. This member-driven alliance comprises 16 organizations, including healthcare providers focused on supporting people living with mental health challenges, along with their families and caregivers.

CAMIMH aims to engage Canadians in conversations addressing mental illness, reduce stigma, and enhance awareness of available resources and supports. The organization emphasizes the importance of integrating mental health into national policy discussions to ensure timely access to care and support for all individuals affected by mental health issues.

With a vision for a healthy society where all Canadians enjoy good mental health, CAMIMH is committed to promoting a comprehensive approach to mental health that encompasses physical, neurological, and psychological well-being. Their guiding principles advocate for an interdisciplinary, culturally sensitive, and continuous care model, addressing the societal burden of mental health challenges effectively across the lifespan.
