Canadian Mental Health Association/Peel Branch began in 1962 when members set out to persuade the Mississauga Hospital Board to create a psychiatric unit. CMHA/Peel has steadily grown from a handful of staff to more than 75 who serve in 12 programs, including a resource centre, two clubhouses, a drop-in, outreach for adults and youth, case management, court support, and its newest program, CMHA/Peel ACT (Assertive Community Treatment). Celebrating its 45th year serving residents of Brampton, Caledon and Mississauga, which make up the Region of Peel, CMHA/Peel operates on a RECOVERY philosophy. The CMHA "Framework for Support" defines RECOVERY as "regaining a significant degree of control in one's life and finding a positive sense of self and a meaningful place in the world. The illness loses its central and life-defining position and takes on a more secondary role ...RECOVERY needs to be achieved not once, but over and over again."
