CASH recently participated in a National Mental Health Think Tank November 4/o8 in Calgary AB. "Toward Flourishing for All … Mental Health Promotion and Mental Illness Prevention Policy Background Paper" (K. GermAnn and P. Ardiles, 2008) is an excellent background paper drafted to serve as a basis for discussion during the consultation. The paper and outcomes from this consultation will be posted here when available.
