We are beyond excited at Cherryville Community Food & Resource Society to be part of the North Okanagan Rural Response Initiative, funded by the Government of Canada via Health Canada’s Emergency Treatment Fund.
Working in partnership with Canadian Mental Health Association, Whitevalley Community Resource Centre, and local Indigenous partners, our goal is to deliver trauma-informed outreach services to Cherryville residents of all ages, absolving barriers to access and reducing stigma. Programming will primarily focus on mental health engagement, supports and prevention, harm reduction education, and peer support. Any Cherryville resident interested in learning more can reach out to our office Monday-Thursday, 8:00-3:00 @ 250-547-0089.
If you would benefit from one-to-one support to navigate mental health and/or substance use, we have recently onboarded a Social Worker dedicated to supporting folks and their families throughout their journey. You can call or text Angel at 250-550-8409, book an in-person or virtual appointment today, or email angel.zeolkowski@ccfrs.ca to get connected.
See below for the Village of Lumby’s Press Release on May 12, 2026 for more details of this fund.
