As we continue to collaborate to find new ways to support, we are pleased to be able to return to weekly in-person meetings.  We will continue to offer a bi-weekly ‘online’ virtual support group.
Both groups will be offered on Thursdays: 4:30 – 6:00pm and will have two facilitators present for the weekly online or in-person group. 

In-Person Sessions
(In terms of mask wearing, please wear what you are most comfortable with.  The Province has dropped all mask mandates.  As promoted in group, we offer a non-judgmental and safe place to share. Whatever your decision is will be respected).

Online (Virtual) Sessions
For those who are joining us from afar, or potentially do not feel comfortable moving to an in-person module yet, or perhaps you find it easier to hop online – whatever your reason, you are welcome to attend an online session that will run TWICE a month, Thursdays: 4:30-6:30pm precipitated by an email link to join.
