System of Response

An improved System of Response reflects the Ontario government's commitment to improve mental health services for children and youth across the province.

The Child, Youth and Family Crisis Line for Eastern Ontario is funded by the Strengthening Our Partnerships (SOP) Initiative of the Ontario Ministry of Finance, with additional funding provided by the Ministry of Children and Youth Services.

The Strengthening Our Partnerships Initiative sets out several goals for provincially-funded agencies:

  • to improve client service
  • to increase efficiency
  • to strengthen partnerships

The initiative strives to improve services in the region resulting in increased crisis response outside normal business hours and a collaborative partnership to serve the community.
