CAMH Foundation Annual Report

Now is the time for
our breakthrough
CAMH Foundation Annual Report 2013/14
A breakthrough
for all of us
What will a
breakthrough
in mental
health look
like to you?
T
hat’s the question we’re asking in the pages ahead as we embark on our
most ambitious fundraising campaign to date. CAMH has launched the
$200 million Breakthrough Campaign to transform mental health care in Canada
and around the world.
We have some big goals (see page 3), but we know the time is right to make
meaningful change in mental health. And CAMH has the talent, the track record
and the vision to lead that change. We now need people who believe in the
Breakthrough Campaign enough to make its vision a reality.
First, we know that a “breakthrough” means very different things to different
people. For patients and clients like Noah, pictured on the cover, a breakthrough
is in living healthier and achieving personal goals (see page 14).
My breakthrough will be a
world in which mental health
receives the resources it needs
for research and treatment,
and our patients are free from
discrimination and stigma.
That is what I’m working for.
Ana P. Lopes, CM | Chair, CAMH Foundation
For Daniel O’Shaughnessy, an active member of CAMH Engage and the Michael
Wilson Society, a breakthrough comes in helping people realize their true potential
(see page 5).
For our health-care professionals, breakthroughs come from helping more people
recover, faster. Our researchers are making breakthroughs in understanding
diagnoses, treatment and, ultimately, ways to prevent the ravages of full-blown illness.
For our donors and families, your breakthrough is in knowing CAMH will be there when
you need us, that your investment will help prevent other families from suffering—and
that you are accelerating a new era of openness and innovation in brain-based illness.
Few know better how far we’ve come and where the next breakthroughs in mental
health will take us than the volunteers who serve on CAMH Foundation’s Board of
Directors. In 2013/14, we offer our deepest thanks to retiring directors Ted Cadsby,
Shelagh Godsoe and Valerie Pringle—all of whom are outstanding advocates
for mental health. While their official roles with CAMH Foundation are ending, we
know we will continue to turn to them for their expertise and energy. And we extend
a sincere welcome to Susan Caskey, Dale Lastman and Sandi Treliving, new
to the Foundation Board this year.
It is truly an exciting time in mental health—and we’re thrilled to have you with us.

Now is the time for our breakthrough
My breakthrough is a CAMH that’s building a future in which
everyone believes that life is worth living. We’re committed to
transforming mental health care and creating hope —across
the lifespan and around the world.
The $200 million
Breakthrough
Campaign goals
reflect key
priorities for
mental health care:
Helping more people
recover, faster
The CAMH vision has always been
to transform the lives of people living
with mental illness.
In 2014, mental illness is becoming
understood as the issue of our time.
Complex mental illness shortens lives
by 20 years. It devastates families and
creates an annual cost to Canadian
society of $51 billion. Mental health care is
beginning to get the attention it deserves,
but openness and understanding in
society continue to be hard won.

The good news is that CAMH has a
clear path forward as Canada’s leading
hospital for mental health. We’re making
it easier for patients and families to
get the right care at the right time.
We’re expanding and modernizing our
hospital while creating and sharing new
knowledge through our research and
education. We envision a thrilling era of
innovation where we will explore links
between physical and mental health,
understand the causes of mental illness
and revolutionize care.
With a fundraising goal of $200 million,
the Breakthrough Campaign will provide
the momentum we need to unlock our
potential and maximize our impact. It’s
the social return on investment where
society will reap the greatest rewards.
Our commitment to excellence will
enable us to meet the challenge
presented by mental illness as the
cause of our time. We can’t do it without
you. To our donors, volunteers and
supporters, I offer my deepest respect
and gratitude. The Transforming Lives
Campaign was our awakening. Now
is the time for our Breakthrough.

We are proud to recognize the resiliency of the human
spirit and the remarkable power of hope through the 2014
Transforming Lives Awards.
O
the event raised more than $1 million
in support of CAMH.
n June 4, before a glittering
crowd of 1,000 supporters,
CAMH honoured extraordinary
individuals who face mental illness
and addiction with dignity and
perseverance. By sharing their
stories —their own remarkable
personal breakthroughs — with the
community, award recipients and
nominees alike help break down the
stigma that surrounds mental illness
and addiction. By celebrating their
courage, we join them in this effort.
This year’s event was also host to
the launch of CAMH’s Breakthrough
Campaign, a $200-million fundraising
effort through which CAMH will help
more people recover, faster; inspire
hope through discovery; and stop
mental illness from destroying lives.
The awards have been a signature
fundraising event for CAMH since
1993. This year’s celebration—the 19th
event—was sold to capacity. Set in a
dazzling open courtyard amid CAMH’s
ongoing Queen Street redevelopment,
“I love being involved with the
Transforming Lives Awards each year,
and to play a role in honouring people
with such powerful stories to tell,” says
Valerie Pringle, who co-chairs the
Transforming Lives Awards with Dr.
David Goldbloom. “Their messages of
recovery, personal breakthroughs and
hope are an inspiration for all of us.”

O’Shaughnessy
is a member of both
the Michael Wilson
Society (see page 7)
and CAMH Engage,
a dynamic group of
young people focused
on fundraising. Here,
Daniel describes the
personal connection
that drives him to
help CAMH create
a better future for
people with mental
illness and addiction.
My older brother Matt was a
wonderful guy. He was one of my first
rowing partners, and we played football
together. He was a couple of years
older, close enough in age to make
it really fun. We were great rivals.
He was always different, but he
started showing symptoms of fullblown schizophrenia around 2001.
He bumped around in the health-care
system, dipped in and out of university,
and continued playing rugby right up
until the very end—which I thought
was amazing. He was having full-on
psychotic attacks, and then playing
rugby that same afternoon.
He struggled to stay healthy, but the
support and care just wasn’t there
for him. Matt committed suicide on
Christmas Eve 2003. He was not a
sharing and caring guy, but he’d bought
presents for everyone that year. I think
it was his way of trying to make it easier
on us, which proved nearly impossible.
I was in university then, and it derailed
my life. My whole family worked really
hard to get back on track. I’ve always felt
like I carried this extra weight, and that
I had to do something for mental health.
Daniel O’Shaughnessy, left,
and his brother Matt on the
football field in 1998.
I found the answer in CAMH Engage,
and as an inaugural member of CAMH’s
Michael Wilson Society. I’ve connected
with people at CAMH who are definitely
progressive-thinking people.
When I work with CAMH Engage, I think
about Matt. My brother was a super
high-functioning and intelligent guy, and
I would love to know the contributions
he would have made if he had been
able to stay healthy.
My breakthrough? Not being afraid to
have a child with mental illness. My
breakthrough would be knowing that
any issue would be identified early and
managed as seamlessly as possible
so kids could continue operating at a
high level and achieving their goals —
which is the opposite of what happened
with my brother.
That would be a win for everyone —
a win for the country and a win for all
families. It would create an environment
where everyone would be doing better.
If that could happen, it would be
amazing.
— Daniel O’Shaughnessy
A
transformation
to be felt
CAMH has undergone
more change than any
other hospital in Toronto,
Michael Wilson says.
The newly created Michael Wilson Society is a group of
generous, forward-thinking people committed to supporting
CAMH Foundation’s efforts to drive research, improve
treatment and reduce stigma. Members are inspired by the
work being done at CAMH, and they are inspiring others.
The Honourable Michael Wilson, former Canadian
Ambassador to the U.S., explains the value in what the
society is working toward.
Mental illness devastates far too
many families.
We must develop the tools to warn
people early if they are prone to
depression, bipolar disorder or any
other mental illness, and tell them how
to stave off that risk. We need to identify
illnesses in their earliest stage, and
treat them promptly so people recover
quickly. It’s as simple as a bad spot
on your skin; you can’t let it go. Get it
checked out, treat it and you will be
healthy. Families will avoid tragedy.
That will be my breakthrough.
CAMH scientists are committed to this
breakthrough. They are working toward
it through groundbreaking research in
personalized medicine, genetic markers,
imaging and so much more. They are
“It is so important for CAMH’s supporters and friends
to understand our transformation—to really feel it.”
It’s an exciting story—and I’m delighted
it’s being told through the Michael
Wilson Society.
No hospital has changed so much in
such a short period of time as CAMH.
If you had asked me 10 years ago, could
I have predicted this transformation?
No. We are making life-saving
advances, always with an eye on the
work that still must be done. It is so
important for CAMH’s supporters and
friends to understand this transformation
— to really feel it. The Michael Wilson
Society is a powerful way for them to
make that connection.

A crucial time for youth
Thanks to a visionary gift from the Slaight Family, youth
will get the life-saving care they need at the Slaight Family
Centre for Youth in Transition.

CAMH Physician-in-Chief
“For too long we’ve
ignored all the pieces
that contribute to a

partnership will actively work to integrate
mental and physical care by revamping
how doctors are trained in medical
school through to how they diagnose

offices, clinics and hospitals.
Announced in January 2014, the Medical

get this complete care, thanks to an
extraordinary $20-million gift from an
anonymous donor, which has established
a new partnership between CAMH, the
Province of Ontario, the University of

The alliance will also be funded through
a commitment of $20 million from
the Ministry of Health and Long-Term
Care, and $20 million from the four
founding institutions.
hree-quarters of all mental illnesses

stage in young adult development. With
the right treatments, years of disability
and wasted potential can be saved.
One of the most exciting developments
of the last year targets this vulnerable
transitional age. A transformational
$10-million gift from the Slaight Family
Foundation has established the Slaight
Family Centre for Youth in Transition at
CAMH, Canada’s first centre dedicated
to understanding and treating youth 18
to 25 with severe mental illness. The
treatments developed at the Slaight
Family Centre will help set young people
around the world on a healthier path
in life at a crucial time in their mental,
physical and social development.
The $10 million gift to CAMH was part of
an outstanding $50 million commitment
to five Toronto hospitals.
“We feel profoundly grateful to be in a
position to provide these hospital gifts,
which we hope will benefit Torontonians
for many years to come,” said Gary
Slaight. “We hope our gifts will be an
inspiration for others to support health
care in their own communities.”
“This gift is absolutely
revolutionary. Today,
life just got better
for the one million
kids in Canada with
mental illness. Thanks
to Donna and Gary
Slaight, CAMH is one
giant step closer to
fulfilling our promise
that every child will
believe life is worth
living.”

More
than a
space
Dr. Brittany Poynter,
clinical head of the
Emergency Department
at CAMH.
Thanks to the invaluable support of our donors—including
leadership gifts by Maxine Granovsky Gluskin and Ira
Gluskin and Stephen Dent and Janet MacLaren—CAMH
is moving toward its goal of raising $20 million to transform
our emergency services. Through an expansion and upgrade
of our current Emergency Department and construction of a
new facility to open in 2020, we will help more people recover
faster. Dr. Brittany Poynter, clinical head of the Emergency
Department, explains that this urgent need is about so much
more than physical space.
I imagine any Emergency Department
—but especially a psychiatric one—is
the last place anyone wants to be.
This is often a person’s first impression of
CAMH, and even the mental health-care
system as a whole. It sets the tone for the
rest of the hospital experience, and for
their overall recovery. The more calming
and welcoming we can make this space,
the better it will be for our patients.
To be honest, we grew out of our
current space many years ago. The
Emergency Department was designed
to accommodate about half the
patients we see now. It just isn’t good
enough anymore; it’s cramped, loud
and run-down.
“ The more accurately we can identify mental illness
and direct people toward the best care for them, the
better the chance they will recover more fully.”

So we’re transforming our Emergency
Department into a bright, modern
and welcoming environment that will
demonstrate how important patientcentred care is to us. This space is about
them. Here, we’ll lay the groundwork for a
positive experience and a faster recovery.
CAMH FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT 2013/14
Waiting rooms will welcome family
and friends—the supports so important
to our patients. Better sightlines will
optimize safety for both patients and
staff. People in crisis will tell their
story fewer times and staff will work in
interdisciplinary teams to improve care.
The transformation of our Emergency
Department is about so much more
than just a new space—it’s about a
new, innovative model of care. Our
goal is to get patients to the right care,
at the right time, through an efficient,
patient-centred approach. Ultimately,
recovery will start the minute they walk
through the door.
I just can’t wait to get into this space,
and start a new chapter in CAMH’s
story. It’s my breakthrough—a
breakthrough for all of us.

A healthier mind and body
In April 2014, NHL alumni and CAMH patients played a spirited
game of ball hockey to officially open the Sandi and Jim
Treliving Gymnasium, made possible in large part by a
generous $1 million gift from Sandi and Jim Treliving. The event
was emceed by Hockey Night in Canada’s Ron MacLean and
attended by stars of the CBC’s Dragons’ Den, including Michael
Wekerle, also a visionary donor at CAMH. Here, Sandi explains
how much it means to her to be connected with this gymnasium.
I have two heroes, and they’re both
connected to mental health.
One is my brother, who was diagnosed
with schizophrenia when I was just 10.
Because of his illness, I’ve grown up
seeing the impact mental illness can have
on an individual, and on a family.
While my family continues to learn
and grow as a result, we’re enormously
proud of my brother and his commitment
to living a healthy life. He lives
independently; he speed walks daily
and golfs in the summer months. I truly
believe that exercise has been a key
factor to managing his illness.
It is so meaningful for us to have played
a role in the ongoing transformation
here at CAMH, and to have helped
create this spectacular space filled with
natural light and positive energy. We
love seeing the gym used by clients
in their efforts to stay healthy.
Much has changed since my father
fought to find the best care for his son.
We are able to talk about mental illness.
We’re diagnosing people earlier. We’re
treating humans as humans and working
together. CAMH is doing amazing work
and we are proud to share that message.
My other hero is my father. When there was
little help in the medical community for his
son— my brother— he pushed through.
His persistence, tenacity, strength and
courage are the reasons for my brother’s
diagnosis and subsequent treatment.
But there is still a long, long road ahead.
Diagnosis, treatments and attitudes —
they must all continue to improve. We
need to get people treated and recovering
so their lives can be just like everyone
else’s — so they can have the “normal”
comforts of life, a career, a family.
Because of these heroes, I always knew
I wanted to support mental health, and
the individuals and families who have
fought the same fight we continue to face.
That is the breakthrough I have always
wished for when it comes to my brother,
my hero.
Sandi and Jim
Treliving relax on
the set of CBC’s
Dragons’ Den.
“The value of the CAMH gymnasium speaks to me
on so many levels— as a huge hockey fan but also
as a strong supporter of mental health in Canada.
CAMH patients need a space like this to help them
along in their recovery, and I’m enormously proud
— Jim Treliving
to be involved with it.”

The ‘seal’ of good health
Since 2008, CAMH’s Gifts of Light program has provided
the community with a powerful way to show CAMH patients
they are not alone in their recovery. During the 2013 holiday
season, more than 2,220 gifts were given to patients who may
have otherwise not received anything at all, and the program
greatly surpassed its annual goal of raising $500,000.

“My breakthrough
will be finishing high
school this year, getting
my mental health in
check and just sticking
to my program. My
breakthrough will be
having a healthier life.”
— Noah is on track to
graduate high school
in 2014.
This year, thanks to seed funding from
an anonymous donor, we introduced
the Gifts of Light Client Comfort
Fund, which supports creative ideas
from front-line staff for improving our
patients’ lives. Dr. Simon Davies, a staff
psychiatrist and clinical scientist with
the Geriatric Mental Health program,
describes how the Client Comfort Fund
has helped his patients.
The importance of
monthly donors
Paro—this fluffy, white robotic
seal— is our new secret weapon in the
treatment of dementia and depression.
Paro bleats, stretches and interacts
with people through baby seal-like
movements and noises. If stroked on the
back of the head, for example, it may lift
its head and bleat in response. Tickle its
whiskers and it purrs.
CAMH Foundation monthly donors provide consistent and
reliable funding toward the most urgent needs of the hospital.
Last year, this group grew by 82 per cent, with 6,000 people
donating close to $1 million to help more people recover
faster. Here, Giacomo Ravina explains why he is one of
those dedicated monthly supporters.
14
If we can find a way to deal with posttraumatic stress disorder, depression
and any number of ailments without
drugs and medications, that’s definitely
a breakthrough in my books.
— Giacomo Ravina, 25 years old
CAMH FOUNDATION ANNUAL REPORT 2013/14
It’s early yet, but we feel really positive
about having found such an unexpected
tool to help calm agitated behaviour, and
to ease the symptoms of depression.
We’re always looking for creative and
innovative treatment options, and it’s
thanks to the CAMH Foundation — and
its supporters—that we’ve been able to
introduce Paro to our patients.
— Dr. Simon Davies
Geriatric Inpatient:
“My breakthrough is being
brought out of myself, if
even just for a little bit.
The thing is that Paro
gives me something to
concentrate on. When you
have depression, you can’t
concentrate and the days
just drag. Paro gives me
something to concentrate
on and care for—and it’s
not hard to concentrate on
Paro. It’s easy.”
— Paul, a geriatric patient
at CAMH

I became a monthly donor to CAMH
in November 2013. When I think of
my support, I think about the kind of
research that could bring us out of the
last 100 years, and the way we approach
mental illness. The immediate response
for a lot of mental illness is some sort of
drug, and I’m hoping research can steer
us away from that immediate response.
The evidence for Paro is accumulating.
We’re already finding that, for some
difficult cases of depression, this could
really be the breakthrough for many
people. It’s very therapeutic — another
approach to use alongside regular
treatments. People become quite moved
with the joy of looking after something.
15
A day of healing
T hird-party events provide important support to CAMH,
and are a great way to spread CAMH’s message of hope
throughout the community while supporting our hospital.
The fifth annual Stretch the Soul is a fun-filled day of yoga
and wellness— a unique event where fancy attire isn’t
required. Participants spend four hours with four yoga
instructors and re-energize with a delicious buffet — all in
support of CAMH. Organizer Amanda DeGasperis explains
what the event means to her family.
It makes such perfect sense for
Stretch the Soul to support CAMH.
For me, yoga is far more than just
physical movement. It’s great for the
mind and spirit, and so greatly healing.
While you’re practicing yoga, you’re
healing yourself.
Like millions of people around the world,
my family has been deeply touched
by mental illness. My grandfather was
loving, generous, selfless, ambitious,
playful and passionate, but he also
suffered from chronic depression late in
his life. We learned first-hand that this
really needs to be brought out into the
open. He is the reason we’ve chosen to
be a powerful voice for awareness and
for change; it’s for him and for everyone
else touched by mental illness. The more
we learn about CAMH— whether about
its research or efforts to develop spaces
that help lift patients’ spirits—the more we
want to support CAMH in its journey.
Through Stretch the Soul, we’ll
continue this long-term relationship
with CAMH; CAMH’s breakthroughs
will be our breakthroughs. Our mission
to raise awareness and end stigma
around mental illness continues each
year, because we want everyone to
understand that CAMH is a healing
centre, should they ever need one.
— Amanda DeGasperis
The right care
for all families
In October 2013, Ron and Barbara Besse made a generous
$250,000 gift in support of the Slaight Family Centre for
Youth in Transition. Here, they explain why developing the best
treatments for this vulnerable age group is so important to them.
Our daughter developed an eating
disorder while in university about 20
years ago. At that time, there was little
help for someone past the ‘children’s
hospital’ age. Hospitals turned her away
because she wasn’t ‘sick enough.’
We would think we’d found the right
program, but the wait-list would be so
long that we couldn’t get her in to see
the best expert.
As a family, we felt desperate that we
couldn’t seem to just ‘push a button’
and get help.
We were lucky to have been referred
to a nurse psychologist who guided
us to the right care for our daughter.
(Unfortunately, that service was not
covered by OHIP, and the cost would
be prohibitive for many families needing
help.) We were very touched by what
she did for our family — and now we’re
saying, ‘how can we help others?’
Family Centre for Youth in Transition
will accomplish. We’ve toured the
hospital, learned about the research,
and are inspired by the treatments being
developed at CAMH’s Temerty Centre
for Therapeutic Brain Intervention. We’ve
become such advocates for CAMH.
And our enthusiasm is infectious. We
have discussions with our friends about
what we’ve learned, and they say,
‘You’re right. There is a need for better
treatments for this population—for eating
disorders, for depression, or for any
disorder.’ They become as enthusiastic
as we are, and they want to get involved.
Our breakthrough? I would like to think
a 20-year-old with an eating disorder
could find immediate care without being
turned away from a hospital. This is
what our family needed, and what all
families deserve.
We’ve been so impressed by what
CAMH is doing, and by what the Slaight
16
Ron and Barbara
Besse believe all
families deserve
the care they need.

Inspiring hope
With the opening of the Campbell Family Mental Health
Research Institute in 2012— thanks to a landmark $30 million
gift from the Campbell Family—CAMH is making enormous
strides in personalized medicine, early intervention and
brain stimulation to help prevent debilitating illness in
people with depression, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
Now we’re taking on Alzheimer’s disease. In 2014, CAMH
was awarded Canada’s largest ever grant to test new
methods in Alzheimer’s disease prevention.
Dr. Fang Liu
“You can always
gauge the promise
of a place by the
quality of the early
career faculty. At
CAMH there is a
cohort of unusually
gifted scientists who
will do important
research in the
coming years. I’d
say the next decade
will be an exciting
time at CAMH.”
—Dr. Thomas R.
Insel, Director,
U.S. National
Institute of Mental
Health, keynote
speaker, Campbell
Symposium,
November 2013.

Imagine if we were able to demonstrate
a tangible approach to preventing
Alzheimer’s disease?
CAMH Physician-in-Chief and geriatric
psychiatrist Dr. Benoit Mulsant— and
co-investigators Drs. Bruce Pollock
and Tarek Rajji— have earned a
$10-million award from Brain Canada
and the Chagnon Family to conduct a
randomized controlled trial of pioneering
brain stimulation and cognitive
remediation techniques. Their study
will involve 375 Toronto seniors with
mild cognitive impairment or major
depression, seniors who are also at high
risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.
Patients will be tracked for two to five
years, and researchers will examine the
effect of the intervention on improving
cognition and preventing cognitive
decline and dementia.
“This study — including patients from
Baycrest, St. Michael’s Hospital,
Sunnybrook and UHN as well as
CAMH— is a powerful example of the
kind of integrated and collaborative
approach we need to make a difference
for seniors everywhere,” said Dr. Mulsant.
Also working on prevention strategies is
Dr. Romina Mizrahi. Supported by the
Meighen Family Directorate for
Ultra High-Risk Youth, Dr. Mizrahi
uses innovative brain imaging
techniques to understand what is
happening in the brains of young people
at highest risk for schizophrenia. The
end goal is prevention.
Prevention is a theme for senior CAMH
scientist Dr. Robert Levitan, who is
working toward better treatments for
those with depression and depression
alongside obesity, conditions that often
devastate families. Ultimately, his work
aims to prevent the onset of illness and
break the cycle in which conditions
can be passed down through
generations. “That will be our
breakthrough,” Dr. Levitan says.
Through innovative thinking and more
than a decade of hard work, Campbell
scientist Dr. Fang Liu, Head of Molecular
Neuroscience at CAMH, has developed
a novel antidepressant that can be
delivered as a nasal spray directly to the
brain. This novel approach offers fastacting benefits with no side-effects.
The breakthroughs our families
and communities deserve are
truly within reach, and I am
inspired every single day by
how much these breakthroughs
will mean to them.
Darrell Louise Gregersen | President & CEO,
CAMH Foundation
We will continue to inspire hope
through discovery at the Campbell
Research Institute.
