Young Adult Mental Wellness

Welcome to our Young Adult Mental Wellness Initiative page!

This CIHR-funded initiative, titled “Nothing about me without me: Co-designing mental healthcare improvements with young adults from diverse communities, their families, and service providers,” was a multi-year initiative that engaged photovoice, collaborative analysis and participatory film-making methods. Our co-researcher team created a Digital Documentary and a Zine highlighting the lived
experience of young adults, family, friend and peer carers in navigating mental
wellness challenges and supports. The Zine, “Through Our Eyes” communicates
experiential perspectives and change recommendations.

Please reach out if you would like to learn more about this initiative.

If you would like to lean more about this important topic, take a look at our Zine!
