Behind the Scenes with Distress Centre

Join us for this webinar featuring Distress Centre special guest speakers Roxanne Cote, Resource Development Manager and Ashley De Vera Macayan, Youth Program Coordinator, as they discuss the new challenges within the pandemic and the importance of accessible supports and services.

Over the course of this hour, you will gain insight into the life saving work that Distress Centre provides, as well as how they have adapted their approaches and programming to continue to support our community members during the COVID-19 pandemic. They will also share information about the phone number 211, which is the front door to government and community-based programs and social services. It’s free, confidential and available in 150+ languages, seven days a week. Learn more: www.211.ca

After hearing firsthand about the crucial role that this team plays on the frontlines of pandemic support, United Way will also provide information on how to show your appreciation for the volunteers and teams that continue to provide quality care for those who live, work, and play in our communities.
