Proper mental health care is often not available to kids depending on where they live. Kids like Hunter, who didn’t have access to the services she needed in her hometown.

Families across Alberta are faced with that same problem. CASA Mental Health needs your support to bring services closer to home for Alberta families.

Earlier this month, CASA Mental Health CEO Bonnie Blakley received an Alumni Changemaker Award in the Community category from Roads University, where she completed her Master of Arts in Leadership degree in 2015.

The Alumni Changemaker Achievement Awards showcase the diverse talents and accomplishments of RRU's alumni network as they advance the university’s vision to inspire people with the courage to transform the world. Recognized for transforming youth mental health care, Blakley received the honour with her family in Victoria on May 1, alongside other award recipients including Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield.

“I need to give back to the public sector that helped me,” she says. “I just wanted to understand leadership better, and did I ever learn about myself,” she says, adding, “People who’ve known me say that, after Royal Roads, it’s part of the fabric of who I am.”

The ceremony profiled Blakley’s significant contributions to the ‘missing middle’ of mental health care since joining CASA in 2021. During her time with the organization, with the goal of doubling the number of children and families supported by CASA, they tripled that number to almost 12,000 annually.

“We wanted to reach more kids where they live, play and go to school, ensuring they had timely mental health services and are empowered to thrive,” she adds.

Congratulations, Bonnie! Read more about her award win here: https://www.royalroads.ca/news/bonnie-blakley-recognized-transforming-youth-mental-health-care
