Background Report to a Plan for a Mental Health Research Program for Alberta: Reflecting Input From Regional, Community, and Research Community Forums

This report presents the results of the Alberta Provincial Mental Health Research Plan Stakeholder Forums held in the Fall of 2004. The groups were asked to consider four questions: to what extent is the emerging mental health research strategy directionally correct? to what extent does the plan address the issues & priorities of the stakeholder groups? how would organizations in attendance prefer to engage as partners in the implementation of the plan; & what other organizations need to be involved?
