Gap Analysis of Public Mental Health a& Addictions
Gap Analysis of Public Mental Health a& Addictions is the first project in Alberta’s history that has attempted to produce a detailed, comprehensive, and systematic description f provincially funded addiction and mental health servirces in relation to population need. Despite the many limitations associated with this project, we believe that the results presented here will strategically valuable for multiple stakeholders, including Alberta Health Services (AHS), Alberta Health, other Goverments of Alberta (GoA) ministries and GoA-funded service providers, as well as a variety of addiction and mental health advocacy communities.

Responses to the Alberta Social Policy Framework Discussion Questions
The Edmonton Social Planning Council (ESPC) welcomes the opportunity to provide these initial responses to the Policy Framework for Alberta Discussion Guide. These responses are based on our organization’s long track record of addressing and proposing solutions to poverty and low income challenges.
Given the very short timeframe in responding to the Discussion Guide, these responses are not intended to be definitive or address all of the areas that will be encompassed by the framework. Our responses focus mainly on the economic dimensions of poverty and low income. Our intent is to focus on practical and affordable solutions that will make a meaningful contribution to poverty reduction in our province.
