Upstream Ottawa Mental Health Community Support (Upstream Ottawa) is a registered charitable organization and has been a provider of community based mental health services since 1985. We are committed to providing meaningful community-based, client-focused, and equitable mental health, substance-use health, and addiction support services to adult and youth populations.

Upstream receives core funding from the Government of Ontario and has recently seen that funding expanded to include new mental health and substance use services to support Black youth and their families. We go above and beyond the expectations of our core donors by offering Wellness Programs that focus on connecting clients with a community of support, providing housing supports to ensure clients have a safe and affordable place to live, and bolstering community resources through initiatives such as our Upstream Psychiatric Assessment Clinic to improve Ottawans’ access to health services.
