When it came to choosing a women’s mental health program to support, I chose to support The Royal in my new city of Ottawa. Their program centers on three worthy areas of focus: capacity building, peer support, and research. They pride themselves on their innovation and thoughtfulness around creating services that cater to the full spectrum of women’s lived experience of mental illness.

​

The Royal’s work strives to ensure that women’s experiences with the system reflect their unique biological, psychological and social needs. They have a versatile range of resources and tools for women, and I hope that I am able to make a meaningful contribution to their work.
