Eli’s Place Residential Treatment Centre will offer a range of mental health care programs for young adults 18 to 35 years of age who have serious mental illness and often concurrent substance abuse issues. The first of its kind in Canada, Eli’s Place will provide a therapeutic, rural environment where participants develop the required skills to recover from their illness, as well as life and work strategies to ensure a successful transition back to the community.
It will take a multimillion dollar sum to design, build, and operate Eli’s Place. As a result, the Founders Campaign is a drive to kickstart community support for this much-needed facility for young adults in Canada.
By making a gift of $1,000 or more in the year, through a single donation or smaller installments each month, a donor will become a Founder – a special group of people who are helping to establish this much-needed place for young adults who have mental health and addiction issues. For more information on how you can support us through the Founders Campaign, please get in touch with us at info@elisplace.org.
THANK YOU to Debby Kassoy and Kenneth Beck, PhD who have become our first Founders Campaign donors:

The first of its kind in Canada, Eli’s Place will provide treatment within a therapeutic rural environment. There, participants will develop the skills to recover from illness, as they gain valuable life and work skills to help ensure a successful transition back to the community.
