Rural youth asked to help shape mental health services in Frontenac, Lennox & Addington

Two separate online surveys are aimed to gather feedback on improving access to services.

Youth in Frontenac and Lennox and Addington counties are being asked to share their voice to help shape the future of mental health and wellness support in the region.

The Kingston Frontenac Lennox & Addington Youth Wellness Hub (KFLA YWHO) is leading a Rural Needs Assessment, and inviting input from youth aged 12 to 25, as well as parents and caregivers.

Two separate online surveys are available. They are short and aim to gather feedback on improving access to services like mental health counselling, nurse practitioner care, peer support, and addiction services in rural areas.

The assessment is being done with help from the Maltby Centre, Home Base Housing, Resolve Counselling Services, and Kingston Community Health Centres.

Every person who completes a survey will be entered into a draw to win a PC gift card.
