Hey everyone, one of our awesome employees passed along a great resource with online training about concussions provided through the BC Injury Research and Prevention Unit (BCIRPU) here. It’s called the Concussion Awareness Training Tool (CATT), and it includes educational modules and resources developed for different perspectives (i.e. taking training as a medical professional, as a coach, as a parent or caregiver…etc.). Check it out!

Stay active…
The Government of Canada has encouraged all adults aged 18 to 64 to get at least 150 minutes of physical activity per week. Doing this can have health benefits, including:
- Improved morale.
- More self-esteem.
- Reduced risk of obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke and more.
To help you stay active, it’s important to make a plan, pick a time and place, and get started. You can find more information on taking care of your physical health here.
NELSON STAR article…Check it out!
Hey everyone, for those of you who might have missed it…here’s a link to an article about the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot (RNIP) program that ran in the Nelson Star on May 7, 2021, featuring some very kind words about us from one of our valued employees. Thanks Mahitha!
Have Your Say In…the CCSS Check In!
Hey everyone, we usually send out an annual feedback survey that we had to postpone last year due to the impact of COVID-19.
We know there will be a time to look back on our COVID-19 experience and ask, “How did we do…” and, “What could we do better…” (and we will!). For now, if you can weigh in on one short question that will help us understand your experience so far, it would be really helpful to us.
While we recognize that we have not had a “typical” year of supports and services, we think it’s still important to check in with you.
You can click here to be taken to the question page. Thanks!
Be kind…
