This project aims to understand the current implementation of evidence-based violence and trauma prevention recommendations. It will identify barriers and facilitators, as well as effective strategies for implementation. The findings will help create an implementation manual for hospitals, offering clear guidance for leaders and administrators to reduce workplace violence, serious injuries, and related psychological trauma.

Preventative Online Mental Health Program for Youth (POMHPY)

During the COVID-19 pandemic, youth in Ontario faced rising mental health challenges. In response, the Preventative Online Mental Health Program for Youth (POMHPY) was co-designed with young people using a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach. Informed by literature, youth input, and community feedback, the six-week virtual program supports mental, physical, and social wellbeing. This collaborative process highlights the value of youth engagement in creating effective, responsive mental health programs.
