Eli’s Place is seeking three community members from the Greater Toronto Area to serve on our volunteer Board of Directors. Experience as a Board Member is preferred.
There is a tremendous gap in our mental health system for young adults aged 18 to 35 with serious mental illness. Eli’s Place will provide a long-term, rural residential treatment and recovery-based program.
The first of its kind in Canada, Eli’s Place will offer individualized therapeutic care and recovery programs, with a graduated transition into the community. A range of programs will promote recovery and resilience through the acquisition of life and work skills needed to move from survival to living, and from mental illness to hopeful futures. The goal is to open for service in late 2020.
- Do you want to make a significant contribution to young adults who have a serious mental illness?
- Will you commit time for meetings, planning and events?
- Do you have expertise in areas such as law, accounting and lived experience?
- Are you interested in joining and working with diverse board of directors?
For additional information, please contact Ellis Katsof, Executive Director, at 905-933-3651 or ellis@elisplace.org to learn more about this exciting opportunity.
