Mental health platforms

Here's what the 2024 Nova Scotia election parties are promising.
We don't have any PC policies on Mental health.

Liberal

  • Invest in mental health walk-in clinics, equally distributed throughout the province

    "A Nova Scotia Liberal government will invest in mental health walk-in clinics, equitably distributed throughout the province, to give Nova Scotians more access to mental health care. These would be attached to our collaborative care centres to offer more health services where people need them." — Better Deal for Nova Scotians, retrieved 2024-11-09

NDP

  • Fast-track the expansion of civilian-led and health-focused crisis response teams across the province

    "Delivering supportive, safe, quality care when a mental health crisis is reported to 911. When people are in crisis and don't know where to turn, we're going to make sure they get the urgent and compassionate care they need. We will fast-track the expansion of civilian-led and health-focused crisis response teams across the province - this will free up police resources and help reduce stigma for those suffering from mental illness." — Leadership You Can Believe In, retrieved 2024-11-16
