The Douglas Institute is proud to be one of the ten member organizations of MONTRÉAL WALKS for mental health.

MONTRÉAL WALKS for mental health is an annual event. In 2011, more than 800 people walked together as an effort to help destigmatize mental illness and collect funds to improve mental health services.

The 2012 edition of MONTREAL WALKS will take place on Sunday, October 14 at Phillips Square.

  • 10:00 a.m. – Douglas Team Meeting Point: corner of Union and Cathcart (CIBC bank).
  • 11:00 a.m. – Walk begins

Join the Douglas Institute team, which our Executive Director, Lynne McVey, will also be part of. Many of our partner organizations, such as AMI QUÉBEC, Revivre, CSSS Cavendish, and others will also be there for this 4th edition of MONTREAL WALKS. Margaret Trudeau has generously accepted to be the event’s Honorary Chair.

Note: Registration is free but mandatory on the Montreal Walks Web site (team name = Douglas Institute)
