Knowledge and evidence resources, Equity diversity and inclusion

Published: December 2, 2025

Advancing equity, diversity, inclusion and anti-racism (EDIA-R) starts with listening. We spoke with partners across Ontario’s child and youth mental health and addictions sector to understand their experiences, challenges and priorities. We also mapped existing resources to understand what is already available and where gaps exist.

Our priority setting report brings together what we heard and what we found. It highlights the gaps and lays the groundwork by identifying key topic areas for future resources that can guide leaders, service providers and organizations towards more inclusive and affirming care.
