We’re making mental health a priority.
The Stratas Foundation was established to promote the mental health sciences in Canada among young and early career scholars.
We recognize everyone's right to a healthy mind, and to accessible mental health care. We also recognize the responsibility we share in creating a world where this is possible.
These are our guiding principles. With your help, we can shine a light on mental illness in Canada.
Improving Mental Health Literacy
Our social media feed is dedicated to showcasing current mental health research.
Our Approach
Virtually all we know about mental health is the sum of the work done by scientists and scholars in universities or government-funded research institutes.
These projects are expensive, and each requires its own source of funding. The knowledge they produce goes into our medications, our treatments, and our public policies. We owe a lot to them. That's why we created a financial support system for scientists who are researching disciplines such as neuropharmacology, psychiatry, clinical and positive psychology, neuroscience, and sociology.
Our Selections Committee processes applications from those seeking funding for critical projects in the mental health sciences.
We accept applications from young researchers and early career scholars working at Canadian universities, health centers, and research institutes.
