💚Healthy relationships take work, and you don’t have to navigate the hard parts alone.

Relationships counselling offers a supportive space to improve communication, work through challenges, rebuild trust, and strengthen your connection. Whether you’re facing a difficult season or simply want to grow together, reaching out for support is a positive step forward.

At NFLA, we believe everyone deserves access to support that helps build healthier relationships and stronger connections.

To learn more about or get started in counselling, contact us at [email protected] or visit our website!

We are so incredibly grateful to our amazing shuttle driver Rick for this donation of a print of “Raven” by renowned Haida Gwaii artist Ron Victor LaRochelle.

If you haven’t met Rick, his joy, laughter, and incredible care for our clients makes our shuttle so much more than just a ride to programming.

Thanks for all that you do, Rick!

Nanaimo Family Life Association’s SHINE Program is currently 𝙣𝙤𝙩 accepting new referrals due to high caseloads and the need to ensure we can continue providing quality support to our existing clients.

We recognize that many older adults in our community are facing increasingly complex challenges, particularly related to housing, financial pressures, and access to appropriate supports. As a result, demand for SHINE services remains very high.

At this time, we have an existing waitlist and will not be reopening before November 1, 2026 at the earliest, based upon caseload demands.

Boundaries can be tough... not because we don’t know what we need, but because saying it out loud can feel guilty, awkward, or too much.

We've put together a workshop for everyone who'd like to explore what healthy boundaries actually look like, why they matter, and how to communicate them in ways that feel respectful, confident and true to you.

This coming Wednesday, Sept 23 - 6:00PM. 1070 Townsite Rd. Registration is highly encouraged! $15.00.

If you’ve ever struggled to say no, protect your time, or ask for what you need, you’re not alone. Come learn tools that help you show up for yourself with confidence and compassion.

We'd be thrilled to have you!
