About Us |
Our Message...Mental illness can be overcome, but it can't be done alone. People with mental illness need plenty of positive involvement from family, friends, and care providers, as early and consistently as possible. Common misconceptions about mental illness often leave families and individuals in isolation and despair, when what they really need is support and hope to get them through the tough times. We're here to help.
Who do we serve?We serve families and individuals living with schizophrenia and related mental illnesses within the Capital Health Region and in communities in Northern Alberta. Where are we located?We are located in the "Financial Building", #201, 10621 - 100 Avenue, Edmonton, one block south of the Corona LRT station, across the street from the Inn on 7th. If you are attending a program at our office after 5:30PM, the building will be locked. You must press the intercom button located on the outside of the building, to the right of the entrance. We will ask you for your name and then buzz you in.
