The Ontario Intensive Treatment Pathway was announced earlier this year and represents an incredible opportunity to redefine and redesign intensive treatment across the province. This significant transformational initiative, with a focus on live in treatment, also has the potential to lay a foundation for a new, collaborative and innovative system. To do so, those working to develop and implement the OITP are tasked with considering a wide range of factors and perspectives. The challenges and considerations are big; the solutions are not small, simple or fast. 

This session is an opportunity to seek input and advice to inform the next stages of the work, beginning with live in treatment. The hour session will be segmented with a brief topic introduction followed by a preliminary panel response and opportunity for audience engagement on critical questions that need answers, such as:

1. What are the most pressing system issues in LIT that need to be urgently addressed through this opportunity?
2. What are the most important opportunities this model offers to Ontario kids and families? To providers? To our partners?
3. What are the most significant barriers and challenges you anticipate to success? How can we mitigate them?
