Making a Difference
The Program
The Certificate in Psychosocial Rehabilitation in Mental Health offered by
Humber is affiliated with the International Association of Psychosocial
Rehabilitation, Ontario Chapter. The aim of this program is to provide
students with the knowledge and understanding of psychosocial rehabilitation
principles and practices and how they are operationalized in a range of mental
health services based on best practices and Mental Health Reform in Ontario.
The program is divided into five courses plus a field experience. All courses,
with the exception of the field experience, are offered in the evening.
The program will be of particular benefit to practitioners currently working
or interested in working with individuals experiencing functional difficulties as
a result of a serious mental illness.
