Transform mental health and addiction services through research
Improve care through the measurement of treatment outcomes in mental health and addiction
Engage leading scientists, universities, patients and clinicians
Merge research with practice to improve care faster

New this year: the Darlene Walton Scholarship Fund

We are pleased to announce a new scholarship to support students entering the field of mental health and addiction research.

The Darlene Walton Scholarship Fund honours the legacy of a dear friend to HRI. For 38 years, Darlene worked at Homewood Health Centre, giving her best each day to help patients recover. An avid supporter of HRI, she recognized the importance of training the next generation of researchers to improve care in Canada.

Sadly, Darlene passed away in June of 2018. You can support Darlene’s vision of a brighter future by directing your donation to the Darlene Walton Scholarship Fund when you make a donation online today
