Improving Quality of Life
Over the past nine years the branch has provided sponsorship of annual bus passes to over 900 people in our community living with a mental illness and/or addiction. A disability pension from the provincial government is their only source of income. That is why a bus pass vastly improves their quality of life for a variety of purposes including:
- Attending community based programs and events.
- Shopping.
- Attending medical appointments.
- Participating in family activities.
- Attending exercise / recreational facilities such as the swimming pool.
- Volunteering at various local agencies/charities and events.
- Accessing various support resources in the community.
All of these programs allow individuals to regain and retain independence and an increased sense of connection to our community at large.
