We are still on a high after our Spring into Care event at Britannia Community Services Centre with Vancouver Women's Health Collective and BC Cancer Screening and Prevention. Between the massages from Langara’s Registered Massage Therapy program, henna application, mural painting, cervix self-screening kits and the incredible information shared on women’s health, it was an empowering and fun-filled time spent in community!

Thanks to all who joined us. Follow along on our social media for future health pop-ups near you 😊

Raycam Cooperative Centre hosted a warm, well-resourced community fair that brought together some incredible organizations and people for health access and well-being resources. We enjoyed connecting with community members and partners and hearing your thoughts in response to our questions around gaps and needs in community health care.

Thanks to the Raycam team, and all who stopped by to share your time with us, we look forward to continued collaboration!

Part of what makes REACH Dental so vital in our community is our ability to care for patients with low incomes, newcomers, seniors, and people who often fall through the gaps in existing public dental programs. We do this through a blend of public funding and clinic revenue, allowing us to keep care accessible for those who need it most.

Sadly, the Province recently confirmed that it will not renew the critical grant that supports BC’s not-for-profit dental clinics, despite clear evidence that stable funding prevents suffering and reduces pressure on emergency rooms.

This will affect patients who rely on public benefits programs, have limited ability to pay, or face other barriers to accessing private dental care. We want to ensure that we can still provide care to those who need it the most, while reducing the demand and stress on other healthcare services that will inevitably become more strained.

This article highlights the broader system impacts. Please consider sharing it with your networks and MLAs as we work to uphold our commitment to accessible, community-based care.

We urge our community to stand with us against Alberta’s private insurance bill and join the National Day of Action this Monday.

This legislation poses a serious threat to universal public health care in Canada. By introducing private, for-profit insurance, Alberta is opening the door to a two-tier system that prioritizes those who can pay while leaving the most vulnerable behind.

Join us in calling on Hedy Fry to speak out and defend the Canada Health Act and our system of universal care:
National Day of Action to Enforce the Canada Health Act
📅March 16
⏰10:00 AM
📍 MP Hedy Fry’s Constituency Office
1030 Denman St, Suite 112, Vancouver

Please share widely and stand with us to protect public health care for everyone.

This Social Work Week, we recognize and celebrate the vital contributions of social workers in community health.

At REACH, our social workers advocate for patients and families, navigate complex systems and connect them with social services and health resources to support their wellbeing.

Their compassion and commitment to care truly is remarkable. We are incredibly grateful for their energy and skillset in improving the health of our community! 🩵

Stronger together for greater impact! Our Board members and Board staff representatives spent an intentional day strengthening relationships, building trust, and deepening our connection as a team because strong partnerships help us better serve our community.

Grounded in our community agreement principles, we reaffirmed our strategic priorities and clarified how we will champion these goals to create meaningful, lasting impact. We also began shaping an integrated fundraising vision to keep our programs sustainable and responsive to the people we serve.

Aligned with our legacy and inspired to do even more for our community, we continue advancing our mission together!

Check out REACH’s strategic priorities outlined on page 10 of our annual report.
