On January 26, 2012, Premier Alison Redford and the Minister of Alberta Health and Wellness, Fred Horne, addressed school personnel, students and the media, regarding the positive impact of the Mental Health Capacity Building Projects across Alberta.  Black Gold Regional Schools CAP (Community – Attachment – Purpose) Team was included in the address at F.R. Haythorne Junior High School in Sherwood Park.  Several other dignitaries and cabinet members were also in attendance. 

“Alberta’s Mental Health Capacity Building in Schools initiative leads the way in providing innovative mental health strategies for children, youth and families because it integrates mental health promotion, prevention and early intervention services in a school-based setting,” said Premier Alison Redford.  “The success of the initiative is due in great part to the community support the projects receive.”Minister_Address_-_Mental_Health_Capacity_Building.jpg
