EHN Canada

Edgewood Health Network (EHN) is a leading provider of private behavioural health treatment services in Canada, offering a network of recovery centres that spans coast to coast. EHN address a wide range of treatment needs, from outpatient therapy to short-term detox, and residential treatment for mental health and substance use disorders, including specialized treatment for military and first responders.

What makes the IAFF/EHN partnership unique?

This exclusive agreement was developed in collaboration between EHN Canada and the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF). The IAFF behavioral health team is working in close collaboration with the EHN executive and clinical leadership team to ensure Canadian IAFF members have access to high-quality, evidence-based behavioural healthcare. EHN offers an admissions/inquiry line dedicated exclusively to IAFF members (1-888-301-7876). An IAFF member or loved one can call this number directly to learn more about EHN treatment options.
