The Canadian Collaborative Mental Health Initiative also completed a review of a range of collaborative mental health initiatives in Canada. The Review, which is published in two volumes, is meant as a resource guide for providers, planners and policy makers seeking to implement or enhance collaborative mental health care in primary health care.

• Volume I "Analysis of Initiatives" identifies key themes and trends of collaborative mental health care as they emerged from an analysis of 89 collaborative mental health care initiatives in Canada and links these observations to previous research and best practices.
