Kristen Barnes
Director of Integrated Youth Services
Kristen Barnes

Over the years, Kristen Barnes, our Director of Integrated Youth Services, has gained pervasive knowledge of mental health and addiction, whether it was with her work with the Canadian Mental Health Association of New Brunswick, her previous work experience, or her studies in Law in Society and Sociology at the University of New Brunswick. Kristen has spent most of her career in diverse roles within the community sector. Kristen’s client-focused work ethic and passion for mental health keep getting stronger and stronger, and one of her wishes is for people to feel comfortable talking about mental health and mental illness.
