About Us
Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), Huron Perth Addiction and Mental Health Services came to be in January 2023 out of an integration of two likeminded agencies – formerly Choices For Change and Resilience Huron Perth – serving the same catchment area with community-based mental health and addictions care. Today, CMHA Huron Perth is a local mental health and addictions agency which provides a variety of services, including addiction counselling for youth and adults, mental health case management, peer support, court support, counselling for problem gambling/behavioural change, supportive housing, community withdrawal management and more. Our goal is to provide quality services and easier access for those impacted by mental health and/or addiction issues in the communities across Huron and Perth.
