Frayme Knowledge Exchange Program

At Frayme, we know that our network is working to create the most impactful service solutions for youth and their families. We also recognize that there is a dizzying array of evidence and information available in the system, which can be difficult to sift through to get a pulse on the relevant knowledge. We want to help you apply the best information and knowledge available to inform your work.

Frayme has specific technical expertise to support a wide range of knowledge mobilization responses that can be timely and tailored. This includes generating resources that meet your needs and brokering connections with experts across the network, including those with lived expertise. Frayme is able to deliver this type of support at a system-level - this means that our resources and connections are best utilized by those implementing and designing programs, services and systems.

Please get in touch with inquiries using the contact form below. After we receive your query we will follow up with you within (5 business days) to gather further information about your request and discuss the best next steps to complete the request.
