Grateful to United Way and Tkʼemlúps te Secwépemc for hosting the Community Conversation on Rethinking Drinking. Drawing upon research to raise awareness, increase access to support services, and to change the culture of addiction.
Pleased that our own community-engaged research with DrugAwareBC (based at TRU) has been invited into this conversation.
This message received from Kristi Rintoul, United Way:
Thank you for attending our recent ReThinking Drinking event at Moccasin Square Garden. We appreciate your participation and the valuable insights you contributed to our discussions; it was a full day!
Attached, you’ll find a summary report capturing key points from the afternoon’s discussions and community feedback; we are also happy to share the presentations, please let me know if you’d like them sent through a cloud-based link (they are too large to attach to this email).We’re excited about the initiatives ahead as we continue to shape a healthier approach to addressing alcohol use in our community. If you are interested in staying involved or learning more about funding opportunities, please reply to this email.
[…] Your feedback helps us improve and ensures future initiatives meet our community’s needs.Thank you once again for your engagement. We look forward to collaborating further in the coming year!
Warmly,
Kristi and Jan
