Thank You for Supporting Our Christmas Celebration!

December 15, 2016 By Leave a Comment

Our community is amazing! Because of you, we surpassed our fundraising goal for the Christmas Celebration held on December 14th! You helped us raise $5,010 to throw an amazing holiday party for about 200 participants of CMHA Kelowna and Interior Health programs. For many, it will be the only celebration they have this year. Every attendee enjoyed a delicious meal and took home a small gift.

Highlights included a visit from Santa and Mrs. Claus and the grade 6 students from Anne McClymont school who serenaded us with holiday songs. We couldn’t have done it without the generosity of our community and our many fantastic volunteers. Thank you also to Lakeview Market for donating much of the produce for this event!

Missed this opportunity to make a difference? Don’t worry, you can still do magic!

National Addictions Awareness Week

November 16, 2016 By Leave a Comment

National Addictions Awareness Week (NAAW) is Nov 13-19, 2016. An initiative of the Canadian Centre for Substance Abuse (CCSA), the week provides an opportunity for the community and media to learn more about addictions, substance misuse and the valuable work of local organizations such as the Canadian Mental Health Association, Kelowna & District Branch (CMHA Kelowna).

rocket-ship-image_shoppersNAAW highlights issues and solutions to help address alcohol- and other substance-related harm and provides an opportunity for Canadians to learn more about substance abuse prevention, to talk about treatment and recovery, and to bring forward solutions for change.

This year’s theme, Addiction Matters, highlights that addiction impacts all of us – individuals, families, and entire communities. Want to learn more? CMHA Kelowna offers Mental Health First aid training several times per year. Click here to learn more.

If you want to see improvements made to our systems of care, so people with substance use issues can better access the services and supports they need, please sign the #b4stage4 manifesto. [Read more…]
