🔔 Heads up! 🔔

There is a scheduled test of the Alert Ready system TOMORROW (Wednesday, November 19, 2025) at 12:55 PM.

A test alert will be sent out to most smartphones, TV and radio stations across the province at that time.

IMPORTANT: The usual emergency alert tone will accompany the test alert. If you don’t want to be disrupted, be sure to turn off your phone before 12:55 PM. Keep in mind that the tone may sound once your phone is turned back on.

Our system is operated independently from Alert Ready so you won’t receive a test alert from our app or text message service.

You matter! Your feelings matter. Help is available. Please reach out because the world needs YOU. 💛

Today, we recognize World Su***de Prevention Day.
September marks World Su***de Prevention Month, which serves as a reminder to raise awareness, offer support, and remind each other that no one has to face their struggles alone.

We understand the importance of open conversations around mental health and the power of reaching out non-judgmentally with empathy. There is hope, and there is help. ♥

A special thank you to all who dedicate their time to saving lives, supporting those in need, and teaching others awareness. Including TeenLink, which empowers youth with the tools and knowledge to support both themselves and their peers. Thank you, Citrine Counselling, Jean Montgomery Professional Services ,and South Coast Wellness for all that you do!

Finishing the last 16 hours of the Death, Dying and Bereavement certificate program.

Such a hard but important topic to learn about but so necessary to offer help around death & dying.
