Without You, Converge is Just an Idea.

Converge is a diverse, Canada-wide coalition whose membership has banded together independently to create a platform to share knowledge and grow ideas.

The best way to create change is through our collective expertise. Converge Mental Health Coalition is composed of people who have something they can offer into the Coalition and are seeking something from other Coalition members.

The current system creates a daunting and unnecessary struggle for those who need help. What we need is better and more intentional alignment, stronger actions, and most of all, we need a united front to get ahead of the Mental Healthcare needs of today.
