Community & Social Supports
A sense of belonging and connection is essential to our well-being. Services or
activities that unite people through shared goals or interests, provide systems
navigation, and offer wrap-around support, help ensure that everyone can fully
participate and feel valued in their community.

Funding from the United Way has
been crucial in sustaining two of
Camino’s most underfunded, but
needed, programs: counselling
and community neighbourhood
work.
These
services
have
become increasingly important as
many individuals and families
continue to face challenges
related to stress, housing, and
food security, which have a
significant impact on mental
health and wellbeing.
