The CMHO Conference is Canada’s largest annual gathering focused on child and youth mental health. Now in its 18th year, this two-day event, preceded by a pre-conference leadership development day, brings together over 700 leaders, practitioners, caregivers, researchers, youth advocates, and policymakers from across Ontario and beyond.

This year’s theme, Interwoven: Co-Creating the Future of Child and Youth Mental Health, invites all connected sectors, roles, and communities to step boldly into the unknown, together. As the needs of children, youth and families continue to shift, so too must our systems of care. Whether through equity-driven practice, creative models of collaboration, or the centering of lived and living experience, the path forward calls for imagination, integration, and courage.
