Quick Facts More than 7,500 participants take part in the 11th annual RBC Race for the Kids Toronto in support of youth mental health. (CNW Group/Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre) The 2023 RBC Race for the Kids is a 5 k.m. walk/ run charity race that takes place at Mel Lastman Square. The RBC Race for the Kids in Toronto, which is celebrating its 11th year, has attracted more than 74,000 participants and raised a total of over $22.5 million to date for Sunnybrook's Family Navigation Project (FNP). FNP was founded by Sunnybrook psychiatrist Dr. Anthony Levitt and a group of parents who experienced challenges navigating the complex mental health care system to find help for their children. FNP connects youth (ages 13 to 26) and families with clinically trained professionals who conduct assessments, analyze needs and provide navigation of the health-care and social service system. A FNP survey confirms the urgent need for youth mental health navigation services. Nearly one-third of Ontario families are caring for at least one youth with mental illness and/or addiction.

The entire team at FNP and I are extremely grateful to RBC and all the Race participants for the generous and long-standing support. Not only have they allowed us to help thousands of young people and their families, but it ensures that we can continue to help the youth of Ontario find the best mental health and addictions care they can." — Dr. Anthony Levitt, medical director of the Family Navigation Project and chief of the Hurvitz Brain Sciences Program at Sunnybrook About Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre is inventing the future of health care for the 1.3 million patients the hospital cares for each year through the dedication of its more than 10,000 staff and volunteers.
