ImROC has kept a close working relationship with Canadian colleagues and Canadian organisations since 2014. Ongoing work within the Canadian Provinces of Manitoba and Ontario includes the further development of Peer Support Worker Training and Recovery College Development. In 2023/24 ImROC continues to work with the Canadian Centre for Mental Health and Addiction (CAMH) and the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA).
The first French speaking Recovery College was implemented in Quebec in 2019 under the name Centre d’apprentissage Santé et Rétablissement (CASR) following a Quebec delegation to England in January 2016. From the outset this Recovery College committed to remaining faithful to the principles of the original ImROC model, and since then continues discussion and collaborations with ImROC colleagues. More about CASR can be found here.
ImROC Canada was formed in 2023 acknowledging the development work and the ImROC training and consultancy work that is taking place between mid Canada and the East coast.
