Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Who we are: A non-profit organization providing mental health and addictions services to adults in the Sudbury and Manitoulin districts.

Our current challenge: We require resources to both support the recruitment and continued engagement of landlords to partner in our rent supplement program, however our organization currently does not have the internal capacity.

What students can except:

  • Contributing to a not for profit, whose purpose is to support healthy people and communities through advocacy and the provision of safe, inclusive, and accessible mental health and addictions services.
  • Regular touch points with the Program Coordinator to engage and exchange ideas.
What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

Our desired outcome: The creation of the following:

1. An attractive, informative brochure targeted to landlords, which highlights CMHA Sudbury/ Manitoulin's Rent Supplement Program.

2. A database to maintain landlord contact information.

3. A contact group (email) to facilitate communications with landlords.
