ABSTRACT: In Nunavik, a complete mapping including hospital, local health centre and the community organizations delivering basic or more advanced mental health care and mental health care support services delivered and available in each village of the Ungava Coast has never been done. This research is the first comprehensive mapping of the different kinds of services delivered by different institutional and non-institutional organizations in this area. Objectives: this project research more specific objectives are the following: 1. Mapping organizations delivering mental health care and mental health care support to people over 18 years old on the Nunavik Ungava coast 2. Mapping the services available from those organizations 3. Mapping the availability of those services in each village 4. Mapping the institutional alliance between those organizations and the regional hospital setting. Methods: All the mental health organizations in the geographical area were contacted and the data gathered classified using the DESDE-LTC instrument. Results: the results achieved include: 1. An appraisal description of services delivered in adult mental health 2. A mapping picture of the continuum of services between community organizations, primary care level, secondary care level and tertiary care level 3. Proposed improvements in the continuum of services. Conclusions: By identifying and describing the community organizations services, our findings give instruments to build collaborative bridges between the institutionalized mental health care, the community resources, and the population needs.
