Educational Goals.
We aim to provide mental health education to our community to help raise awareness and engage in productive, effective discussions surrounding mental health.
Articles on Mental Health and Wellness
When we have something to write about with the work that's happening in mental health, you can always find it on our social media or right here on our Mental Health Articles page: Understanding Your Mental Health.
We aim to produce relevant and helpful articles explaining all there is to know about the issues we face every day that affect our mental health and well-being.

Sponsoring, Organizing, and Presenting Mental Health Seminars in our Community
We strive to find the best, most relatable and helpful information in the world about mental health and to bring it to our community partnering with our colleagues in the helping professions.
Making this information accessible, relevant, and up-to-date can increase the overall levels of support available for every individual in the community.
From more health-focused workplaces, to families breaking generational cycles, to children simply learning the language of emotions, we believe that the more we talk about mental health, the better for all of us.

Mental Health ResearchSince psychology and mental health treatment is a relatively new field, studies are being produced at a rapid pace and news articles about them can tend to skew the perception of what is actually known and accepted as best practices.
KMH Foundation's longer term goals include contributing to and participating in Northern Ontario focused studies, increasing access to impactful and groundbreaking research in the field of psychology. |
Counselling Internships
Our region is home to vast and awe-inspiring natural beauty.
The Sleeping Giant just across Lake Superior, endless kilometres of the Boreal Forest, the icy frost of winter, the balmy, bright summers, and deep, intergenerational, historical trauma among our people.
To have a chance at addressing the vast need for mental health resources locally, we must invest in those in the helping professions; students, interns, and those that are provisionally licensed and working towards autonomous practice. Thus, KMH Foundation strives to connect people with high-quality internship and supervised positions working with the highest-level trauma psychotherapists that are able to supervise their work with vulnerable populations.
