Community forum in support of ATLAS Youth Treatment Facility

COMMUNITY FORUM
on the future of ATLAS Youth Treatment Facility

Wednesday, November 25, 3pm-5pm
Kermode Friendship Centre, Eagle Room
3313 Kalum Street, Terrace

How can Terrace community members work together to support ATLAS and try to prevent the closure of this vital youth addiction treatment centre? Government funding cuts mean this centre is due to be closed by December 31 of this year. We need to keep local access to these services to keep our community healthy!

Welcoming ceremony: Kitsumkalum elder TBA

Speakers:

• Sandy Watson, youth addiction counsellor at ATLAS
• Robert Hart, professor, Social Service Worker program, NW Community College
• André Ledoux, paramedic

Forum moderator:

• Mike Clarke, vice president BC Government and Service Employees' Union, and community social services worker
