Peter is member of Sagamok Anishnawbek First Nation, and has spent the past ten years building culturally congruent mental health and addictions programs in partnership with both urban, rural and First Nations communities through his work at CAMH. He is the organization’s first Aboriginal Clinic Head and is responsible for creating CAMH’s Aboriginal Services Program, providing support to communities across Ontario and nationally. During the past decade, this service, housed in the Addictions Program at CAMH, has grown from being a good intention into a formal strategic priority at CAMH. Peter’s personal leadership and his gift to form productive collaborations with colleagues across the organization, the sector and amongst diverse communities are at the heart of this transformation.
