This can lead to poor outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The Royal Bank Foundation donation \u2014 which is the largest ever for child and youth mental health services in Eastern Ottawa \u2014 will expedite the system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Munter said the program will help connect children with the services they need, but those mental health services need a \u201csignificant investment\u201d from the provincial government as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Long wait times and insufficient programs have long been a feature of mental health services for children and youth in Ontario. Many expect pressure on the system to increase.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Provincial Health Minister Christine Elliott said she hopes to see the innovative one call\/one click program emulated across the province once it gets off the ground in Eastern Ontario.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The program will offer a single number to call or one online link to click, walk-in clinics, direct booking, coordinated care planning and peer and family support services.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cWe all want kids to flourish,\u201d said Elyse Schipper, executive director of Parents\u2019 Lifeline, who is a member of the one call\/one touch team.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cAs it is now, there are just too many barriers to them having that chance to flourish. It does not need to be this way and we know it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">She said it is \u201cthrilling\u201d to be part of a group that is \u201cchanging the way we take care of kids and families.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A $1.5-million donation from the Royal Bank Foundation is being called a game-changer in creating an innovative system that will make it easier for children and youth in the Ottawa region to get access to the right mental health and addictions services.
