Action On Mental Illness Inc. (AMI-Quebec):
AMI-Quebec, a grassroots organization, is committed to helping families cope with the effects of mental illness through support, education, information and advocacy. By raising public awareness, we help dispel the shame and stigma that too often surround mental illness.
Mental illnesses, known to be biologically-based brain disorders, can profuoundly disrupt a person’s ability to think, feel, and relate to others. Mental illness affects not only individuals, but their families, friends, and everyone around them.
