The Canadian Centre for Mental Health and Sport (CCMHS) is a national centre providing sport-informed mental health care and resources to the sport community. The CCMHS rests on 3 pillars of success: Research, Collaborative Care, and Education & Outreach.
An important mandate of the CCMHS is to support the sport community and equip participants across Canada with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to navigate their mental health, mental performance, and any symptoms of mental illness.
Our goal is to empower Canadian coaches to champion the mental and physical wellness of their athletes, while advocating for equity, inclusion, and culturally responsive approaches to mental health promotion and support.
Regardless of the context or level of participation, we believe that sport is a powerful vehicle to create positive experiences and relationships that foster health and wellness throughout the lifespan.
