When the Archway Outpatient Clinic gets a makeover, courtesy of the Association of Registered Interior Designers of Ontario (ARIDO), it will be about more then new paint and flooring. It will be creating a healing space that reminds the clients they are important, said Joan Loughran, a recreation therapist at the clinic. “It is about having hope and pursuing dreams,” Loughran said. “But the space wasn’t very hopeful. It was dark, dreary and grey.” Archway, at 1451 Queen St.

W. in Parkdale, is an outpatient clinic of the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH). The about 20 staff and doctors there serve people with complex mental illness who would have at one time been treated as an inpatient. Archway helps give these patients the skills to live happy, healthy lives in the community. The clients are taught to cook healthy meals, do their own laundry, meal plan and other skills. Michael Torres, senior media relations specialist at CAMH, said part of CAMHs mission is to give clients freedom, dignity >>>ARCHWAY, page 12
