Shifting perspectives : Insights into mental health and homelessness

Abstract

This open educational resource was developed by students enrolled in the Addictions and Mental Health graduate certificate program at Fanshawe College as a part of the Field Placement experience. It represents a culmination of their academic and practical learning, integrating research, analysis, and collaborative inquiry.

Created through a team-based approach, this resource explores the complex and interrelated issues of mental health and homelessness in Canada. Drawing on current data, real-world case studies, and evidence-informed practices, the resource offers a comprehensive examination of the challenges faced by individuals affected by homelessness and mental illness.
