This Thursday, May 28, we celebrate Young Caregivers!

On that day, Young Caregivers Association is hosting two free events: a free movie screening at 7 p.m. EST and a 24-hour conference with multiple insightful sessions!

🌄 Like a Mountain is a 25 minute documentary, following Sam, a caregiver for her dad who lives with a rare schizoaffective condition. Sam joins filmmaker and cancer survivor Mike Lang, along with world-renowned mindfulness researcher Dr. Linda Carlson, on a backcountry trek through the Yukon. Through the dialogue and reflection, the documentary illustrates the hidden challenges of being a young caregiver.

📚 Silent strength - throughout the day, you can join multiple sessions focusing on young caregivers experiences and challenges.

Starting today, support us in or two community fundraisers to make lives better for those in our communities!

Mensural May is a fundraiser to support women of all ages by providing mensural hygienic products to those who cannot otherwise afford them on their own. The fundraiser is starting today and running until May 30th.

We are also starting a youth food drive to help fight off hunger for teens and young adults in our community. Food is an essential for everyone, and many youth often struggle to feed themselves when living in environments that lack the healthy supports they need. Our food drive is located at 859 Prince Street.

If you wish to donate to one or both of these events, please drop your donation off to us at 859 Prince Street Mon-Fri during business hours. For questions please call 902-895-4211 Ext 3.
