Matthew Prebeg: I am a multidisciplinary artist, designer, and researcher. I also go by Matt(y). Some might go so far as to say that I am a creative technologist, but I’m still figuring out what exactly that means. There’s this old saying, “A rolling stone gathers no moss.” (1) This can mean something positive or negative, depending on who you ask. See, my dilemma is that I like gathering moss, but I also like rolling. I have moved around a lot, currently residing in Toronto, ON. My practice dynamically weaves disciplines and constantly changes, depending on my current interests or the direction the wind is blowing. I am a lifelong learner. You can think of me as a rolling stone in a moss garden.

Currently, my art practice explores the interplay between digital technology, traditional media and culture. My professional practice is centred on designing services and translating knowledge in healthcare. These, too, are bound to change. I am open to chatting and collaborating—you can contact me at hi@mattprebeg.com.

Making sure that youth have access to the right services, in the right place, at the right time, is critical to supporting their mental health and substance use. That’s why Youth Wellness Hubs Ontario has over 30 Networks that offer high-quality, evidence-based, and integrated services to youth across the province.

One ingredient to achieve better health outcomes for youth is something called measurement-based care, or MBC, which is the use of measurement tools like surveys and questionnaires to guide treatment decisions.
MBC actually has a lot of benefits, like increasing shared decision-making between youth and their service providers. There’s just one problem: MBC isn’t being routinely implemented. Service providers have a lot on their plate already, and sometimes it’s challenging to ask them for more.

But when we did an environmental scan of youth who access services in Ontario, they want MBC. They believe in its value, but just need opportunities to be more involved in the process (“It’s like I just fill out the questionnaire, and poof, I never hear about it again”). 
That’s why we worked with a team of youth lived experts to co-design the MBC Pocket Guide to improve MBC delivery for youth across Ontario. Read more here.
