As we reflect on an incredible month of May, we are filled with gratitude for the growing participation, support, and connection being built within our community.

💙 Our Men's Health & Wellness Group has been breaking attendance records, bringing together more men than ever before every Monday at 5:00 PM. We share a nourishing meal, sit in circle, and create a safe space for open discussion about what is on our hearts. The strength, vulnerability, and support shown each week continues to inspire us.

⚔️ Our Young Warriors Program (ages 13+) meets every Wednesday from 3:30 PM to 6:00 PM and continues to grow. Youth enjoy healthy meals and snacks, mentorship, cultural connection, activities, and of course Chef Michael's creations that keep everyone well fed and smiling.

June is already off to an amazing start!

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Our Run/Walk & Foam Run kicked off the month with an amazing turnout of more than 60 participants of all ages. Community members came together to complete 5 km and 10 km routes filled with laughter, movement, encouragement, and fun. It was incredible to see youth, adults, Elders, and families all supporting one another and celebrating healthy living together.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Every Thursday morning, our Family Time Program continues to provide a welcoming and safe space for families and loved ones to gather, enjoy a delicious meal and snacks, strengthen relationships, and build community connections.

✨ Our Women's Wellness Group continues to create magic each week as women come together to support one another, share experiences, learn, heal, and grow in a welcoming environment.

☕ One thing you'll find at all of our programs is a warm welcome, healthy snacks, and fresh coffee always on. We believe connection often starts with sharing food, conversation, and community.

North Island Building Blocks also offers a wide range of additional programs throughout the week, including Parent Drop-In, Sharing with Elders, Cultural Sharing, Wellbriety, Primary Care Nursing Drop-In, Pregnancy Outreach, Counselling Services, Gentle Movement & Breathwork, as well as Narcotics Anonymous (NA) and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings, and much more.

All North Island Building Blocks programs are open to Indigenous and non-Indigenous individuals, youth, and families. Everyone is welcome. Whether you are looking for connection, support, wellness, culture, recovery, family activities, or simply a safe place to belong, there is a space for you here.

Thank you to everyone who participates, volunteers, Elders, facilitators, and community partners who help make these programs possible. Together we are building stronger connections, healthier families, and a more vibrant community.

❤️ Healthy Families, Strong Communities ❤️
