Company Overview
In the last decade, the rate of Canadians with anxiety, depression, and bipolar have nearly doubled. Now, in any given year, one in five Canadians experiences a mental illness and 7% contemplate suicide. Substance abuse has also arisen with the Canadian Mental Health Association estimating that 21% of the population will meet the criteria for addiction in their lifetime. Unfortunately, the public system has not been able to serve the increased demand for intensive treatment, and the average wait time is now almost two months.
EHN Canada was founded in 2013 to support this growing demand. We believe that every Canadian has the right to mental health and addiction treatment services that are accessible (little to no wait times), affordable (paid for by your government or employer), and excellent (using outcomes measurement and evidenced-based practices). We have since grown to become the country's largest private provider of mental health and addiction services. Clients now receive treatment via ten locations and a virtual program.
Under the leadership of Joe Manget, CEO and Chairman, EHN Canada won the Greater Toronto top employer award in 2023. That same year he published a book, Everybody's Business: How to Ensure Canadian Prosperity Through the Twenty-First Century, detailing four pillars increase our country's prosperity for future generations. He's also been recognized by Ernst & Young as a top health and life sciences entrepreneur.
EHN Canada has an aggressive plan to increase treatment capacity 385% in five years. Not only is this is a young and emerging private industry, but we're also the largest in Canada. That means we're building something that hasn't existed before. There is no playbook. We're moving fasting, rapidly innovating, breaking things, and learning. Does that excite you? If so, we're seeking talented professionals from all sectors who enjoy our startup culture.
Let's build this together!
