Mental Health Toolkit

Mental Health Toolkit

This resource provides a simple guide to mental health services offered in the community. It can assist individuals in identifying appropriate mental health and social services by answering a series of questions to determine which services best meet their needs. This tool is helpful for anyone seeking assistance for themselves or someone else. We’ve got just the thing to help you kick-start your journey – a complete toolkit!

At CeFIE, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable environment for our staff, volunteers, and the communities we serve. Our EDI Resource aims to provide guidance and resources to promote diversity and create an inclusive space where everyone feels valued and respected.
