Based in Victoria, Mental Health Recovery Partners of the South Island (MHRP) is a not-for-profit service provider dedicated to bettering community access to essential mental health services. Today, MHRP provides virtual and in person services for people with mental illness, regardless of their diagnosis, and for the people who care about them. This includes youth with psychosis, and others with schizophrenia or a mood disorder (bipolar disorder or major depression), and the family members who provide support. In addition, MHRP provides services to those with anxiety, borderline personality disorder, and other mental illnesses. They offer counselling, education, training and peer support for both family members and people seeking recovery from their own mental health challenges.

Reporting to a passionate Board of Directors, the Executive Director has overall responsibility for policy implementation and the effective management of MHRP and all its programs. This will be a very fulfilling opportunity to lead an organization that achieves deep and personal impact for its clients, their loved ones, and the community at large.
