On June 25, Plasman MVP ambassadors from Windsor 1 and Windsor 3 Manufacturing and Global Headquarters delivered over 300 much needed items to Maryvale. These items included tablets, art supplies, sticker books, weighted lap pads, clothing, hygiene products, and more.
“It is very humbling to be a part of such a great cause in our community,” said Ritu Madaan, Director, Corporate Finance. “I am very proud that Plasman supports charities like Maryvale that has a deep-rooted presence in Windsor/Essex and Chatham/Kent.”
Maryvale is a Children’s Mental Health Treatment Centre in Windsor, Ontario, where adolescents experiencing emotional, psychological, and mental distress can receive therapy and assistance. They primarily serve young people aged 13 to 17 and their families.
“We are incredibly grateful for the ongoing partnership and generous donation from Plasman,” said Andrew Ward, Executive Director, Maryvale. “Their thoughtful support helps Maryvale directly enhance our therapeutic and educational environments, providing essential items such as art supplies, hygiene products, and classroom resources. This contribution positively impacts the daily lives of our youth, fostering their creativity, dignity, and overall well-being. On behalf of everyone at Maryvale, thank you to the entire Plasman team for your kindness and commitment to our community.”
Maryvale Services
Day Treatment School Program
Maryvale offers a program that combines school and treatment for adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17 years who are experiencing significant or persistent problems in their community school and may also be experiencing conflict in their families and/or the community. This program offers a unique and comprehensive approach to education by seamlessly integrating mental health support with academic learning.
One key benefit of the Day Treatment School Program is the personalized attention and support students receive through the multidisciplinary team.
Acute Care Mental Health Hospital Program
The Rotary Home – Acute Care Mental Health Bed Program is jointly delivered by Windsor Regional Hospital and Maryvale Adolescent and Family Services. When youth are admitted to the Rotary Home program, they are Windsor Regional Hospital patients.
The focus of this program is to conduct careful assessment of the various factors contributing to the crisis in which the child/youth (and family) find themselves.
Outpatient Counselling
Youth experiencing mild to severe mental health concerns and moderate to severe concurrent addictions issues are referred by a number of sources, including self, parents/guardians, school staff, Children’s Aid Society, doctors/psychiatrists, etc.

Parent Coach & Resource facilitator
This program offers support to parents during those difficult times.

For parents, the call-in line offers a lifeline to navigate concerns related to their child’s mental health, providing them with expert advice and resources to better understand and address their child’s needs.
