PROJECT NIGHTLIGHT
COMMUNITY + MENTAL HEALTH
We have exciting news! Project Nightlight has been chosen by D.I.T.R.O. to be the Partnered Charitable Organization for 2019-2020 and we couldn’t be more excited and grateful.
When I asked Sam why she chose us, this is what she said:
Community + Mental Health. Two things that have been instilled in me from a very young age. I grew up in a very small town, known for its Centennial Centre of Mental Health + Brain Injury + bringing with it a stigma that surrounded my town. Both my parents worked as psychiatric nurses at the CCMHBI + later in my early adulthood, I too would work as a psychiatric aide.
