We have collaborated with leading experts on substance use. Providing clear, factual information about the risks associated with drug use.

Students learn that the toxic and unpredictable nature of the drug supply means that even one dose can be fatal.

Big news for B.C. families 💙

Today, I introduced legislation that will make it easier for school districts to offer #ChildCareOnSchoolGrounds — so parents can find quality care in the same safe, familiar places where their kids learn & grow.

Reading should be a joy, not a struggle. 💛

Our new early literacy screening will help us spot challenges — like dyslexia — sooner, so kids get support right away and grow up confident in their learning.

Had such a treat visiting the ECE program at #RidgeMeadowsCollege!

Thanks to Karen, Erica & Will for the tour. ECEs & ECEAs do critical work for kids every day—I’ll keep advocating for dual credit programs so more students can join this rewarding field. 🌱 #ChildCareBC #bcpoli

When unexpected health emergencies happen, preparation can potentially save lives - every second counts.
 
That’s why starting this school year, AED and CPR learning will be part of every students’ education before they graduate.
