The Impact

“I’m a single parent and have no other support... CMHA allows my daughter to have fun, even when I’m too sick to take her out. You help her understand she’s not the only child living with a parent with mental illness.”

The Super Saturday Club provides social and peer support to the children of parents with mental illness.
