Hi Friends and Family,
Once again, I'm reaching out to you about a cause that is extremely near and dear to my heart.
As many as 1.2 million Canadian youth struggle with mental illness, yet only 1 in 5 receive the care they need. Navigating the mental-health system is confusing, confounding and down-right frustrating! Kids and their families simply don’t know where to go to get the critical help they need - and unfortunately, neither do family physicians who are often the first line of help!
The Family Navigation Project at Sunnybrook is changing this. Their mission is to guide and support families who have youth struggling with mental health and addiction issues. And I know it works -- they have helped two of my children have been diagnosed with mental health illnesses. They have helped my son graduate from high school -- and more recently, to receive highly specialized medical treatments available to very few in this country!
That's why I am again participating in the 2019 RBC Race for the Kids - for my 6th year! Funds raised will help families like mine connect to the mental health service they desperately need, when they need them. Please support me with a donation today!

Thank you for helping to guide many youth (like my children) through the mental health system.
I truly appreciate it! ... and I'll keep you posted on my progress!
Most sincerely,
Diane Irvine
