Eli's Place ads

There is a gap in the mental health system for young adults with serious mental illness. Eli’s Place will help close this gap and provide support by creating a long-term, rural residential treatment and recovery-based program – the first of its kind in Canada.

Eli’s Place is gathering input from clinicians and referring professionals as we prepare to open Canada’s first long-term rural therapeutic community for young adults with serious mental illness. A stay at Eli’s Place will last around six months. Guests will live at Loyola House on a working farm north of Guelph, with clinical care on site, meaningful work on the land, community living, and support as they move toward housing, education, or work. For future referrals, the fit will need to be clear before a young adult is pointed toward the model. Eli’s Place is voluntary, built for those who are past immediate crisis, and designed for Guests who are ready to take part in the daily life of the community. The survey on our Program page is open now. Your perspective will help us understand what clinicians need to know, what families may need explained, and where this model may fit in the continuum of care.
