💙 Thank you, Martin!

This Thursday is Martin’s last day of his practicum with us. When he started, the Resource Centre wasn’t exactly what he had in mind. He’d hoped to be working in areas like substance use and mental health — but as he settled in, his perspective definitely changed!

“I was absolutely floored by the amount of services the Resource Centre offered… Every day I got to interact with wonderful people and had the privilege to make a difference in their lives.”

We’re glad you ended up here, Martin! Thank you for showing up for our community and for the impact you made. All the best in your next chapter! ✨️

💜 International Overdose Awareness Day | August 31

Today, we come together as a community to remember the people we’ve lost to toxic drug poisoning, support those who are grieving, and stand alongside the people and families affected.

These are more than statistics. They represent our neighbours, friends, family members, coworkers, and community members. Today is an opportunity to remember their lives, listen, learn, and come together with compassion.

We’re proud to be part of this community gathering and invite you to join us for an afternoon of remembrance, reflection, and connection.

📍 Hackett Park, ch’atlich – Sechelt
🕐 1:00–4:00 PM today
