“Having these virtual 'coffees' allows me to take a moment to step away and connect with like-minded people. It’s great to have a space to not only get support but provide it in return.”

“I was referred to your YouTube podcast 'Grief & Loss - Helping Children Cope' by my son's school guidance counsellor. I have to say it was EXTREMELY informative and very helpful in understanding a child's mental state and processing when it comes to grief and trauma. Thank you.”

"Our instructor was so knowledgeable, answering all our questions about the cultural significance and purpose of the Lei Po'o. Each Lei Po'o crafted by the attendees was uniquely beautiful yet deeply reflective of the Hawaiian tradition.This class truly helped us connect with the āina (land) and our surroundings. I loved the combination of learning, creativity, and social interaction with both the instructor and fellow attendees."

“My daughter loved getting her youth Wellness Kit! Getting mail as a youth is exciting on its own, but having a kit full of wellness tools was SUPER helpful. Thank you for thinking of our Youth.”

“My teens and I LOVED the Remembrance Day Resin tray activity. The Poppies preserved in our trays are a year-long reminder of those who have served. It was a great way for us to connect as a family as well - which is hard to do with teens sometimes!”

“I really appreciated the opportunity to connect and gain some perspective in a space where I could ask for advice. This is the most connected I've felt to a community since moving to Edmonton, and I hope we get this posting.”
