Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon
September 24, 2006
Run for CPRF and help us raise funds for research into
mental illness and addictions affecting 20% of Canadians.
Make a difference in the lives of millions of people living with
mental illness in Canada. The Canadian Psychiatric Research Foundation is a national charitable
organization founded in 1980 to raise and distribute funds for psychiatric
research and addictions and awareness in Canada. CPRF also
produces the best-selling When Something's Wrong series of
handbooks that translates this research into information that can
be used in our communities at the grassroots level. We are
volunteer driven, with a small staff, overseen by a
volunteer Board of Directors and a Professional
Advisory Board.
Each year, CPRF carefully evaluates grant applications from across
Canada. A Professional Advisory Board of senior researchers reviews all
applications to ensure that quality projects are recommended for funding. To date, CPRF
has provided more than 11 million dollars in support of 312 fellowship and research grants
at hospitals and universities across Canada.
