Mental Health is Health

During Mental Health Week, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) launched a brand platform anchored by their new tagline, Mental Health is Health. The integrated campaign focused on the devastating impact of mental illness by highlighting the deep-rooted disparity between mental health and physical health. The campaign made an impact globally and began to change the way Canadians view mental health.
