In October 2022, Canada’s Premiers announced the recipients of the Council of the Federation (COF) Award for Innovation in Mental Health and Addictions Care. Presented in each province and territory for innovative initiatives that positively impact mental health and addictions care, the award recognizes individuals and organizations excelling in the field. In this episode of Arthritis At Home, we talk to Dr. Terri-Lynn Fox, Director of the award-winning Kainai Wellness Centre, about the importance of the award, what support and services the Centre offers and how it works, and the connections between intergenerational trauma, pain, mental health and addiction and the arthritis connection.
