About EENet

and addictions knowledge exchange network located at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health

What is a CoI?

  • In this context, a CoI is a forum for knowledge exchange and

mobilization focused on an issue or concern related to child and youth mental health and addictions in Ontario

  • CoIs have broad representation from stakeholder groups from

across the child and youth mental health and addictions sectors, and other related sectors

  • Members of a CoI work collaboratively to address a

knowledge gap, share what they know and learn from others regarding a topic related to child and youth mental health and addictions in Ontario

  • The purpose of a CoI is to bring people together to identify,

create and use evidence to strengthen child and youth mental health and addictions service delivery in Ontario

  • EENet and the Centre are partnering to support

strategic knowledge exchange activities through CoIs focused on topics related to Ontario’s child and youth (0 – 18 years of age) mental health and addictions sector

  • Funding and resources are available for up to

  • Successful CoIs will receive up to $4,500 in funds, in

addition to dedicated Knowledge Broker support and

  • ther network resources

CoIs through partnership

  • In addition to establishing new CoIs, EENet and the Centre are

interested in linking into existing knowledge exchange forums/initiatives

  • This may involve adding a child and youth mental health and

addictions lens to a dialogue that is already taking place around a topic (i.e., housing and homelessness)

  • There are many benefits of a CoI partnership, including:
  • Opportunities for cross-sectoral knowledge exchange and community

relationship-building

  • Reduced time and costs of information search
  • Increased diversity in perspectives on problems, leading to more

effective solutions

  • Human resources (one EENet Knowledge Broker and
  • ne Centre KE staffer per CoI)
  • Technological infrastructure
  • Resources for in-person meetings
  • Communication and knowledge exchange vehicles
