  • Our staff are phenomenal at accomodating a variety of unanticipated needs. Right now, they’re sitting with clients in the parking lot, standing for the entirety of the appointment. I can’t tell you how much we need this space as an option for care.

  • Some of the youth and young adults that I work with struggle to meet in a formal clinic setting. Either they don’t trust institutions or they have trouble being still.
    A landscaped outdoor area with benches and picnic tables would mean all the difference in being able to allow them to engage with their counsellors and therapists.
