BCCA Update – Sep 2019

Bragg Creek Centre

Hello Bragg Creek and area!

HERE WE COME!! It is astounding to me how much variety and number of programs, events and support are available to us. Please read on to find out how you can plug in and enjoy!

But first, a friendly nudge for you to consider joining the BCCA Board. It takes a village to run this village, so please consider yourself invited to reach out to us at info@braggcreekca.com or 403.949.4277 for information. Nomination packages are available on our website. As you can see from the number of activities we host, our BCCA is a vital aspect to our cultural and community buzz.

So, here’s the buzz!

DID YOU KNOW?

BCCA is also a resource for community support, information and referrals.

If a community member is in need we can get them in touch with a support program and SUPPORT WORKERS WILL COME TO THEM.

Some of the Programs available to Bragg Creek and area residents:
  • Support for Teens & Young Adults – Family Conflict, Concerns with Substance Abuse, Young adults facing challenges with the shift to adulthood
  • Basic Needs Support – Food hamper, Subsidized taxi, Emergency Clothing & Furniture
  • Healthy Relationships – for men or women struggling with abuse in their relationship
  • Elder Abuse Support
  • Financial Information and Resource Management

If you have a problem and you’re not sure what to do, a Resource Worker can listen and offer a first step. FCSS Resource Workers are non-judgmental and can provide helpful solutions. Wendy Farnsworth works from the Bragg Creek Community Centre Monday afternoons and is available without an appointment.

To learn about resources and programs contact a Resource Worker at the Western Rocky View Family & Community Resource Centre at 403.851.2250.

Welcome to Fall! Sincerely,
Sherri Olsen,
Board Director & BCCA staff
