Actions
Matthew Dickson helps people with mental illness in developing countries so they can get access to basic mental health care at MindAid.ca.
Mind Aid is the world's first website with all the organizations working on mental health in developing countries on one site (they are otherwise scattered across the web).
These organizations use models of basic mental health care that are low-cost, proven effective, and scalable.
Some of these organizations have been endorsed by Bill Clinton, Forest Whitaker, Arcade Fire, Ashley Judd, as well as Zak Williams (son of Robin Williams) and Tim Shriver, founder of the Special Olympics.
Matthew has successfully recovered from schizophrenia and has bicycled across Canada twice.
