Patterns of abuse: The silent treatment, ghosting, ignoring, attempts to provoke a response from a lack of response, are all forms of abuse, control, and manipulation. No matter what type of relationship - intimate partner, family or friendships - these are unhealthy methods of communication. #WHFYC

This award is based on Sarah's work and commitment but NO ONE works alone. If we don't have the buy in from the community and the support of volunteers, no one can really achieve their highest potential. Thank you LISA & HEATHER! #werehereforyoucanada #vive2025 #womenshistorymonth #togetherwecan

Social anxiety is real, you never know who suffers, and we try very hard to hide it! Remember, when in social events, try to talk to another person who is alone and doesn't know anyone, it might help you and will certainly help them.

We are pleased to release our IMPACT REPORT for 2024!

For International Women's Day - I want to applaud EVERYONE who has volunteered their time and effort with us over the past year! In particular, I would like to thank our valued board members -Heather A Neilson and Geneva Shaw!

We would like to thank Franchise Management Inc for their recent generous donation! When a victim approaches the hospital, they have already undergone trauma - now have a exam with a FNE/SANE - this can take hours - they choose to report to the police, takes time. A hot meal helps! #fmi #WHFYC

BE STILL, Be mindful of your breathe, slow breath in & slower out ... focus on an object vs. letting your mind wander... and forget about it all for at least a few minutes. We can control how we react to the world around us. Peace comes from within us #bestill #mindfulness #werehereforyoucanada

RACISM. IS. TAUGHT. Any form is unacceptable and has no place in Canada. It runs counter to the values and spirit of the diverse and inclusive society that we strive to build. We must stand up as vocal allies. Call out the hate. #BlackHistoryMonth #stopracism #equalityforall #werehereforyoucanada
