Congratulations to the Family Navigation Project!

Congratulations to Sunnybrook’s Family Navigation Project (FNP), a 2020 champion of the Canadian Foundation for Healthcare Improvement’s (CFHI) Priority Health Innovation Challenge.

CFHI launched the challenge to “identify and grow promising innovations in two shared priorities: access to mental health and addictions services, and home and community care” and support “novel approaches that increase access to care.”

FNP helps youth 13 to 26 years of age experiencing mental health and/or addiction (MHA) issues and their families find the support they need by navigating the complex MHA system.

FNP was recognized as an overall champion, competing against over 30 mental health and community teams from across the country. FNP was awarded $60,000 in funding which will help continue to support more youth and families in the future.
