Who We Are

WE Connect Kids is a partnership that started with the five core service providers for child and youth mental health and addiction services in Windsor/Essex. It is the place to start if you aren’t sure how, where, or what type of mental health service you need. It’s a free, confidential mental health service for children, youth, and families who live in Windsor-Essex.

Hôtel-Dieu Grace Healthcare’s Regional Children’s Centre serves our community by acting as the "front door" for child and youth mental health services. Through WE Connect Kids, individuals will receive the most appropriate service based on their needs.
