A Look Back at Tour de Bleu 2024
Youth Mental Health at Osler
Osler’s Mental Health and Addictions program is one of the largest in Ontario.
25% of parents report that their children’s mental health worsened during the pandemic.
Osler experiences the largest number of Emergency Department mental health visits in the GTA.
Following the pandemic, there has been an increase in symptom severity in patients and longer wait times for all mental health programs at Osler.
Over the past two years, the generosity of Tour de Bleu sponsors, riders and the Peter Gilgan Foundation has enabled Osler’s passionate and dedicated mental health team to pioneer a ground-breaking new program that is saving the lives of young people in our community who struggle with self-harm and suicidal thoughts. You’ve impacted the lives of teens like Azuza, who had no where else to turn.
