A big thank you to Valley First for your generous donation in support of our Men’s Trauma Program this past year. 💙

Your support helps make it possible for men to access a safe space where they can work through trauma, build healthier relationships, develop practical tools, and take meaningful steps toward a better future.

We are incredibly grateful for your investment in the men in our community and for helping us continue this important work. Your generosity makes a real difference.

One participant shared:

“I am emailing today to thank you for allowing me the opportunity to work with the men’s trauma group. Before I started the group I was in complete shambles. Not only did the Facilitators provide real hands-on solutions to my day-to-day issues, they gave me tools to assist with heightened anger, frustration, trauma, and relationships. I knew that every week my life was getting better and I was working towards a new version of myself - with new tools to help me survive this crazy world we live in. I was so honoured and privileged to be a part of this group. Please get a new group going sooner than later - there is more good work to be done!”

Thank you, Valley First, for helping make this work possible. Together, we are creating opportunities for healing, growth, and change. 💙

A heartfelt thank-you to our dedicated staff and Board of Directors for your commitment to making healing possible! We are also grateful to our funders, volunteers, political champions, and community partners for joining us and supporting our mission.

Your presence reminds us that mental health is a community effort. For four decades, Connect has been helping individuals and families heal, grow, and find hope - and we are honoured to continue this work with such strong supporters by our side.

🔎🕵️‍♀️ Case closed… or is it? 👀
Our team recently stepped out of the office and into a murder mystery! 🕵️‍♂️
It was an evening full of teamwork, laughter, problem-solving, and a little friendly suspicion.

A great reminder that connection, collaboration, and having fun together matter too. 💛

Supporting GBV workers will require more than wellness initiatives or organizational actions. Structural changes are needed to funding models, mental health programs, research initiatives and more. The Labour Force Strategy outlines actions that will lead to supports for workers, better service for survivors and long-lasting sustainability for the sector, for as long as GBV continues to exist.

GBV work is essential, but too often, the jobs themselves are precarious. Short-term and inadequate funding can mean temporary contracts, fluctuating hours, staff turnover and challenges maintaining consistent services for survivors.

Building a stronger GBV workforce means creating more stable, sustainable working conditions across the sector.

To learn more, read the Labour Force Strategy at endingviolencecanada.org/stronger-workers-stronger-survivors/

09/05/2026

GBV workers function in environments with high levels of trauma exposure every day. This coupled with challenging working conditions takes a heavy toll on workers’ mental and emotional wellbeing.

To do this work well, GBV workers need access to high-quality mental health and therapeutic care through robust benefits and organizational supports.

To learn more, read the Labour Force Strategy at endingviolencecanada.org/stronger-workers-stronger-survivors/

09/04/2026

GBV work requires a distinct, deep, and hard-won set of competencies that takes years to develop. These workers have expertise in areas such as intimate partner violence, sexual violence, exploitation, technology facilitated violence, workplace harassment, human trafficking, and many others. GBV workers’ expertise needs to be valued and recognized.
