Volunteering… A Time-honoured Tradition

CMHA, York Region has been built upon a tradition of volunteering. We value our volunteers and their contributions to the association and the communities where we live and work.
Together, staff and volunteers contribute their efforts toward the achievement of Branch goals and objectives. They operate under the same philosophy and mandate and provide support to all aspects of Branch activity.

Our dedicated volunteers perform a number of valuable services including:

  • working at fundraisers and special events
  • facilitating support groups
  • participating in educational events
  • assisting with office work such as filing and preparing mailings
  • serving on committees and the Board of Directors
