e4c Alberta is happy to welcome the Wellness Network “Peer Navigators” to the head offices at Alex Taylor School building. Wellness Network Peer Navigators are individuals with “lived experience” or family members of those with “lived experience.” They are available to support you on your personal journey of wellness by helping you navigate available resources.

Wellness Workshops are a great way to explore the aspects of our lives which affect our overall well-being. e4c is working in the community to develop workshops and support facilitators to bring community members opportunities to focus on individual aspects of wellness in fun and engaging ways. Examples include: Writing for Recovery with Leif Gregersen, Financial Empowerment with Jo Neville, and Beading for Spirit with Donna Robillard to name a few. Inquiries and information can be sought through our McCauley Office (780) 424-2870 or email: thashimoto@e4calberta.org:“krambow@e4calberta.org”:mailto:krambow@e4calberta.org.
