Healthy relationships build healthy communities.

💚 Today marks both World Mental Health Day and World Homeless Day.



Mental health and housing go hand in hand. A safe place to call home plays a vital role in wellbeing, yet thousands of people in Canada experience homelessness every night.



Everyone deserves access to the support they need. Through our network, United Way helps connect people to housing, mental health services, and other essential resources.

Who are your Natural Supports?

Natural supports are the everyday relationships and connections that help us feel supported and give us a sense of belonging. These connections can include family and friends, neighbours, coworkers, coaches, community organizations, and local businesses.

By strengthening these relationships, we can help build more connected and supportive communities.

Give your unwanted electronics a second life! ♻️

In celebration of Circular Economy Month, United Way Central Alberta is partnering with the Electronic Recycling Association (ERA) for a FREE Electronics Collection Event!

Have unused electronics sitting around? This is a great opportunity to clear out unwanted devices while supporting responsible recycling and reducing electronic waste in our community.

Every device collected has the potential to be refurbished, reused or responsibly recycled, helping keep electronics out of landfills and giving technology a new purpose.
