You may or not be aware that the biggest mental health care provider in Ontario is the prison system. Learn and rethink this sytem with the help of this recent multimedia project by John Howard Society called Broken Record – Continued Criminalization of Mental Health Issues challenges this system.

Brown report cover with stars. Text reads "Broken Record The Continued Criminalization of Mental Health Issues"

At the site you can place yourself in each part of the mental health and justice system from Arrest to Police to Jail to Court to Bail and Outside.

The report was at the top of the Toronto Star website and hopefully many new people will read and hopefully change their mind about the mental health (in)justice system.
