Welcome to FASMI!
Annual General Meeting
Our first annual general meeting will be held Tuesday November 12th at 5pm Pacific / 8pm Eastern time. After the business portion of the meeting, we’ll have a presentation by Dr. Richard O’Reilly entitled Getting Help for your Loved One when the System Fails. Following the presentation, there will be an opportunity for questions. Please note this event is for FASMI members only. If you're not a member, please sign up on our connect page by November 5, and put in the comment box that you want to attend the AGM. Members will receive a link to the AGM a day before it starts. There are no fees, and membership is open to all Canadian residents who agree with our objectives.
The Family Alliance on Severe Mental Illnesses (FASMI) is a Canada-wide organization, incorporated under the Canada Not-for-profit Corporations Act. Our goal is to strengthen the family voice advocating for those with psychotic illnesses in Canada. We know that family involvement and support are an integral part of better clinical outcomes when it comes to the recovery and stability of those with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and related illnesses. We want to make sure that families can access education and support they need to help their loved ones - and that the family voice is heard.
Please take a look around, and join us as we create a new movement for families in Canada to help those with severe mental illnesses.
