When a support system feels out of reach
Imagine being a student at college who starts to experience major depression. Away from your family and support circle, that isolation becomes unbearable and you start to think of suicide. Lumenus is here to help.
Recently, we helped a young adult in this exact situation. New to the city and alone, he arrived at our Doorways program in crisis. Lumenus team members welcomed him into our offices and our community. Leveraging their deep clinical experience and therapeutic tools like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, they helped him become self-reliant, reach his goals, and build confidence to face the adult world on his own. The difference Doorways made was long lasting. He went on to get his Masters in Social Work to be able to help others.
We helped 11,000 people each year with different stories and needs.
With expertise across autism, mental-health, developmental, crisis, and family services, we help people navigate some of life’s most difficult moments and support them through life’s changes, not just during a single moment of need. And donor support helps us act sooner, do more, and create opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.
Lumenus helps people find their way forward, acting as their one guide throughout
their journey.
Here, care feels the way it should. Human. Thoughtful. Connected.
And the future feels brighter with every step.
