The Canadian Centre for Innovation in Child & Youth Mental Health & Substance Use

We generate innovative solutions to strengthening mental health and reducing substance use harms for children, youth, and their communities.

What’s New?

At Wellstream, we’re proud to partner with the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction (CCSA) and the Canadian Association of School System Administrators (CASSA) to develop a new pan-Canadian standard: School-Based Substance Use Prevention, Education, and Intervention — A Multi-Tiered and Developmental Approach for Kindergarten to Grade 12 Schools.

Developed under the management of CSA Group, this standard will provide a national framework to support substance use prevention, education, and intervention in schools across Canada.

Explore insights from our enhanced engagement event, which brought together educators, school leaders, youth, public health professionals, and policy experts to help shape a standard that reflects the realities and needs of diverse schools and communities nationwide.
