Welcome

The goal of the Krasman Centre is to serve as a physical hub for the community of Psychiatric Survivors and their Families and Friends throughout York Region. The Krasman Centre is a unique organization created by Psychiatric consumer/survivors and family members in York Region and is funded by the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care. Governed by a volunteer board composed of consumer/survivors and family members it has provided an opportunity for various sectors to join forces for mutual support.

What do we do?

We are a psychiatric consumer/survivor drop-in resource centre in Richmond Hill. Our centre serves all of York Region and offers several services and programs including:

  • Peer based programs
  • Support for consumer/survivors
  • Support to families and friends of those struggling with mental health issues through the Family and Community Outreach Program
  • A home base and meeting place for self-help groups
  • The Self-Help Network of York Region
  • Information resources
  • Volunteer Opportunities with ongoing training
  • The Warm Line: A non crisis peer support line
  • A monthly newsletter Bulletin
  • Use of the facilities (computers, meeting room, laundry and shower facilities and for those who are homeless, phone/fax/photocopier use)

There are always new things happening at the centre. Check out the "What's Happening" section to get most current updates.

Also, we have two cats living at the centre who love to get attention. Drop in to meet McCain and Brat.
