Ledger House
Pediatric Mental Health

The Queen Alexandra Foundation supports the Ledger House Mental Health program which provides mental health assessments for children and youth in our community who are desperately in need of this care. Ledger House's impacting work is best described in the words of a former program participant. She recently wrote:

"I had a multitude of problems: drugs, alcohol, depression, a past sexual assault, and an eating disorder. I was admitted to Ledger four times over a year and a half before I managed to sort through it all, but I will always consider myself lucky that I had the option of going there. I learned that Ledger is a safe place, where when you are ready; you can deal with whatever your problems are. With the help of these solid anchors, I was able to realize what I wanted to do with my life … become someone who helps those in need. Whether it will turn into social work, counseling or working with criminals, I am not sure, but I know now what steps to take."
