Up to 15% of mothers experience postpartum depression (PPD) symptoms. Using a pre—post design, results from two 8-week psychoeducational group programs for mothers with moderate levels of PPD symptoms are presented. Findings show the low-cost program to be a promising secondary preventative intervention for an undertreated population.

Transitional employment (TE) within the Clubhouse model has been adopted across Canada and the world for its effectiveness in promoting work and recovery for persons living with mental illness. However, attempts to establish a TE program in the province of Québec have been met with numerous roadblocks. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, this study aimed to synthesize knowledge that could inform local implementation of TE. Experiences of Montréal Clubhouse members and Canadian Clubhouse directors were examined. Member narratives identified employment-program and systemic shortcomings, while directors provided key strategies for overcoming barriers to TE implementation.

This study reports findings from an evaluation of a 3-year collaborative care pilot project implemented in a Canadian primary care setting to assess and treat seniors (age ≥ 65) living at home with a chronic physical illness and co-morbid depressed mood or anxiety. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews with seniors and family caregivers who had participated in the project (n = 14). Descriptive qualitative analysis revealed the significance of the care manager’s role in offering social and emotional connection and non-stigmatizing support to seniors living at home and self-managing their physical and mental health.

Worldwide, Indigenous peoples focus on being well rather than merely managing diseases and illnesses. We have elaborated on a mental wellness framework earlier developed with Manitoba First Nations (FN). This article further explores wider community perspectives in relation to the themes previously shared by FN Elders. Surveys were administered to a simple random sample of participants by household in 8 participating FN communities. We determined what resonates from the wellness framework in order to expand understanding of mental wellness in FN communities. Appropriate application of traditional health knowledge and practices may result in increased self-awareness and contribute to mental well-being in FN people.

Coping Cat et Incredible Years ont été identifiés dans ce conseil scolaire comme les interventions les plus pertinentes et faisables pour aider les élèves ayant des difficultés d’anxiété et de comportement.

Positive mental health in youth has important implications for overall well-being. This study examined the extent to which different types of social support are associated with positive mental health among individuals, ages 15–24, diagnosed with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Compared to respondents without a diagnosis of ADHD, those with a diagnosis had significantly lower scores on measures of positive mental health and on four of five types of social support. Among the five types of social support, social integration and reassurance of worth were found to be significant predictors of positive mental health in respondents diagnosed with ADHD.
