Today is International Overdose Awareness Day. A day to remember those who have fallen victim to overdoses and the loved ones they have left behind. This year's theme “Together We Can”, highlights the power of our community when we all stand together. While every individual action matters greatly, coming together as an international community creates a powerful collective action. If you would like to show your support, tonight there will be a memorial walk at Mill Lake Park at 6:30pm, hosted by L.I.F.E. Recovery Association to honor loved ones who have lost their lives to overdose.

These snack packs were filled with a variety of nutritious and fun snacks! We are so grateful, and the families loved them!

As we celebrate our 55th anniversary this year, we’re looking back at the growth of our programs and services over the years. In the late 1970s Archway established their first distinct multicultural service contract. Over the years, services were created to meet the needs of refugees from Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Kosovo, Syria and more. Services have grown to include assistance with housing, providing English classes, friendship-matching services, after-school programs and employment services.

Did you know that sexual abuse toward men is often overlooked, neglected, and poorly understood? The lack of understanding and available resources surrounding this topic often leads to additional trauma for male sexual abuse survivors. It is important that we raise awareness, challenge misconceptions, and break the silence and stigma surrounding this neglected issue. In an effort to aid those who have similar experiences, two male survivors of sexual abuse shared their stories with us and how they were able to find healing. Listen to their stories and find support services like Archway's Men's Trauma Counselling at Archway.ca/malesurvivors
