Matthew Perry House announces Royal campus location; open house March 20

This morning, I was very pleased that the Matthew Perry Foundation of Canada announced its intention to build a Matthew Perry House supportive housing development on the campus of the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre at 1145 Carling Avenue.

I encourage everyone to read the press release with more details here. The project is a partnership of The Royal, Salus Ottawa, Ottawa Community Housing, CAPSA Canada, Rideauwood, Ottawa Black Mental Health Coalition and the Ottawa Aboriginal Coalition.

On March 20, I and the Matthew Perry Foundation of Canada are hosting an open house to share more details in the auditorium of the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre from 7-9 pm. You can get more details of that and register here. I’ve included the poster for the open house below.

I and the Foundation hope to see you there.
