Community Action Initiative is a nonprofit organization transforming how we address mental health and
substance use (MHSU) challenges in B.C. through trust-based granting, immersive community engagement, and
capacity building
As an essential connector between grassroots organizations and government, we translate rich community
insights into actionable public health frameworks that empower communities to design—and lead—their own
solutions. This involves aligning specific local needs with provincial priorities, ensuring local voices actively shape
MHSU resource allocation and programming.
We’re driven by the belief that harnessing community wisdom, lived experiences, and diverse perspectives is
essential for nurturing better public health outcomes. And that’s how we’re fostering equitable MHSU initiatives
across B.C.—through a more collective, human-centred approach that truly serves all.
