    The online form will be available until Monday, March 31st at childandyouthadvocate.nl.ca

    Nearly a year ago, the Office of the Child and Youth Advocate invited young people and families who have direct experience with the mental health system, as well as professionals and other stakeholders, to share their experiences and ideas. To date, the Office has heard from many reaching out by phone, email, in-person and through the online form. Staff have also travelled throughout the province to hold meetings with individuals and groups. The interest and participation, thus far, has been exceptional and the discussions very meaningful. We hope to continue to hear from others in the coming weeks, as our information gathering will conclude by the end of March 2025. All information will be analyzed, and a final report will be prepared once the analysis has been completed. The online form will be available until Monday, March 31st at childandyouthadvocate.nl.ca
