Problems commonly addressed by staff include physical and sexual abuse, school issues, violence, issues of grief and death, family conflict, separation and divorce, alcohol and drug misuse, depression, eating disorders, sexuality and suicidal and self-harming behaviours. We do whatever it takes to help clients.

Staff have helped clients significantly improve the quality of their lives by focusing on the clients' strengths and their abilities and willingness to survive. Oolagen never gives up on kids and their families !

We collaborate and develop partnerships with other agencies/resources. We recognize that by combining the expertise and skills of one organization with those of another, client services are vastly improved. Oolagen has developed partnerships with schools, children's aid societies, foundations, corporations, community resources and other organizations in order to expand and improve services to our clients.

Oolagen responds to the changing needs of the community by continually developing new, unique, and flexible mental health programs that are needed in various Toronto communities. For an in-depth description of our current programs click here.
