Improving mental health outcomes for all people in Canada
We believe everyone should get the chance to achieve their fullest health potential.
At the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC), we shine a light on mental health and work to improve the lives of people who experience mental health problems and illnesses (as well as their families and caregivers).
We offer accessible training programs that support mental health in communities and workplaces and lead research and program initiatives that emphasize people-centred values like lived and living experience. These include:
- suicide prevention
- stigma and discrimination
- access to high-quality, culturally appropriate mental health services
- workplace psychological health and safety
- substance use health
The MHCC is a national not-for-profit corporation and a registered charity. We are supported by funding from Health Canada, partnerships with federal, provincial and territorial governments, foundations, private sector organizations, and donations from the public.
Available for purchase by individuals interested in becoming members and considering applying for the Certified Psychosocial Rehabilitation Recovery Practitioner (CPRRP) until March 31, 2025.
PSR Canada is a grassroots, non-profit charitable organization. We provide a community of practice for individuals and organizations who want access and knowledge exchange opportunities on evidence-based PSR recovery-oriented practices.
If access to our extensive library of resources is required for an organization, we ask that the organization obtain an organizational membership. Currently, we allow an unlimited number of personal accounts to be assigned within an organizational membership.
PSR Canada’s operations are largely volunteer-based. To continue providing benefits to members and sustaining our community of practice, certain requirements must be met for individual memberships:
- Individual Memberships: Exclusively for the person who holds the membership.
- Non-transferable: Content in the online library, knowledge exchange, and mentoring services cannot be shared or transferred to others.
- Non-organizational use: Membership cannot be used for organizational purposes.
By purchasing this individual membership, you agree that your use of your membership adheres to these requirements.

Welcome to the Community of Practice course for all PSR RPS Canada members!
What is a community of practice?
- A community of practice is a group of people who share a common concern, problem, or interest in a topic and who come together to fulfill both individual and group goals.
- Communities of practice often focus on sharing best practices and creating new knowledge to advance a domain of professional practice. Interaction on an ongoing basis is an important part of this.
- Many communities of practice rely on face-to-face meetings and web-based collaborative environments to communicate, connect and conduct community activities.
This space allows you to create and participate in discussions with other members across Canada and the world, sharing best practices, discussing emerging trends, and more!
