Whereas, there has been a 67% increase in hospitalizations for children with mental health disorders over the last ten years; and,

Whereas, the majority of people treated in an Ontario emergency room after a suicide attempt are not seen by a psychiatrist within six months; and,

Whereas, individuals seeking treatment for mental illness face extensive wait times upwards of 18 months; and,
