Our Impact

COVID-19 amplified the relationship between mental health and addiction.
JACS Toronto responded effectively to support the community during these challenging times.

From March 2020 to February 2022, more than 1,500 individuals attended one-on-one counseling and group therapy sessions at JACS.

JACS clinicians worked with more clients in individual and family counseling and in support groups than before COVID-19 began: individual counseling clients and group attendees doubled during this period, increasing 94% and 105%, respectively.
