The newly established pan-Canadian Integrated Youth Services (IYS) Collaboration Centre has been created to support development, implementation and evaluation of IYS practices, services, and research across Canada. There are emerging or established IYS networks in every province and territory in Canada, with close connections to the ACCESS Open Minds Indigenous Youth Mental Health and Wellness Network. IYS networks deliver mental health, substance use health, primary care, education, employment, housing and other health, social and community services to youth aged 12 to 25 years. The IYS model is also characterized by its commitments to equity, engagement, measurement and continuous learning. IYS youth hubs are in more than 100 communities across Canada and for example, in Ontario, are operated by Youth Wellness Hubs Ontario. The IYS Collaboration Centre and IYS Networks operate as a Learning Health System, where evidence, data, and care culture are used to generate new knowledge and continuously refine and deliver best practices for continuous improvement in mental health and substance use care.

As an employment equity employer, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) actively seeks First Nations, Inuit and Métis candidates, those from diverse ethno-cultural backgrounds, women, people with disabilities, people who have experienced mental health and substance use challenges, and additional diverse identities, for our workforce.

The Pan-Canadian Integrated Youth Services Collaboration Centre (IYS-CC), hosted by CAMH, is seeking a highly organized and motivated full-time Program Manager. Reporting to the Director, Pan-Canadian Research & Implementation Initiatives, the Program Manager will play a crucial role in ensuring the effective operation and strategic advancement of the IYS-CC. This national initiative aims to strengthen Integrated Youth Services across Canada, supporting a network of 14 IYS networks to function as individual Learning Health Systems (LHSs) and as a pan-Canadian ‘network of networks.’ The IYS-CC facilitates knowledge exchange, develops best practices, and supports implementation and scale-up of effective youth mental health and substance use services.
