Norfolk Sunrise Supporting Mental Health Programs at CAMHS
Recognizing the Rotary International focus of mental health and wellness, our Club has scheduled a number of specialist speakers in to inform us about related issues in our community and has further contributed to mental health causes that are seen to be helpful.Recently, the Community Service Committee made a donation to one of the key mental health leaders in our area; CAMHS-Wellness & Recovery. With this donation (one of several that we have made over the years), they have been able to purchase a new stove for their lunch program. As a result, each week The Wellness & Recovery Centre is able to host a free lunch from 12-1pm on Fridays for individuals in the community living with mental illness and/or addiction. The meals are hosted/served at their location at 50 Orchard Ave in Simcoe.
As an aside, CAMHS wants the public to know that in the event anyone; anyone at all, might benefit from this program; they are warmly invited to just drop-in.
