January 2016 – Mental Health Commission of Canada – Supporting the Mental Health of Refugees to Canada
KEY MESSAGES
- Canada is well positioned to provide incoming Syrian refugees with support for good mental health;
- There is a strong evidence base that can be drawn upon to guide mental health service interventions for refugees; however for many communities and practitioners, there are gaps in knowledge about what tools and resources exist; and
- A political and institutional strategy (supported by investment) is needed to develop a linked and coordinated response.
