Family members often play a huge role in supporting their loved ones on the journey from diagnosis to recovery. Knowing how to successfully navigate and find mental health services in the community goes a long way in the success of that journey.
The idea to create a comprehensive guidebook for family members and caregivers was an initiative of Durham Mental Health Services and Canadian Mental Health Association Durham. Using a template from the Family Mental Health Network book From Rollercoaster to Recovery: a Guidebook for Families Navigating the Mental Health System in Wellington-Dufferin Counties as inspiration, a task group was formed to gather relevant information and create a resource manual for families in Durham Region.
Now in its 3rd edition, Pathway to Recovery offers up-to-date information and resources to support families and caregivers of individuals experiencing mental health challenges.
