As our community continues to process the events of the tragedy at Echo Dale Regional Park, we would like to take a moment to highlight the importance of prioritizing health and wellbeing during difficult times.
A range of mental health support services are available within our community, and at provincial and federal levels, for those who may be in need of assistance.
We encourage everyone to take care of themselves and one another, and to reach out to the resources below if support is needed. Our thoughts remain with the family and all those affected during this challenging time.
