Featuring John Flesher – John’s Journey from Cop to Counsellor

Our Encompas Mental Health Awareness and Communication webinar series has been rebranded as “Mindset Matters – Where Shared Experiences Connect People.”

Did you know that, similar to the US, 1 in 10 Canadians talked with a healthcare professional about their alcohol use in the past year?  Yet for the most part, medical professionals have under-communicated the harms associated with everyone’s favorite socially accepted substance of choice.

But the latest scientific evidence has revealed a new sobering truth: alcohol is worse than we thought. The just released guidelines state that to remain within the low-risk range of consumption, people should drink a maximum of two drinks each week.

The Encompas Mental Health Wellness Program has connected with and vetted a new resource for Members, which focuses on the science and treatment of substance use.

Substance use disorders are a common mental health challenge that affect people from all walks of life. That said, sometimes treatment options are inaccessible – such as a long-term residential program, or frequent in-person groups or individual sessions. Fortunately, virtual treatment can allow people to overcome these barriers to recovery. ALAViDA, Canada’s first virtual substance use management care provider, is a science-based solution that delivers an immersive experience developed by medical professionals with a comprehensive background on substance use disorders and delivered by technology.

The priority of Dalton Associates and the Encompas Mental Health Wellness Program has been and continues to be the mental health and safety of those OPPA members who reach out for support.

In the late afternoon of Tuesday, May 11^th, 2021, we became aware of a serious situation involving Project Trauma Support that occurred in 2018. Project Trauma Support is a not-for-profit residential treatment program for First Responders experiencing occupational stress injuries and trauma. This program has been on Encompas’ roster of residential treatment programs since launching in March 2020.

We do not take these concerning allegations lightly. Encompas is committed to ensuring our members have access to

Le programme de bien-être en santé mentale Encompas est fier d'annoncer une nouvelle ressource sur notre site Web pour les membres Encompas intitulée Show Up for Our Heroes: A PTS Awareness Project.
