Here are some stories from the current CPCA “Write your Life Stories” program. If you are interested in signing up for the Fall program of eight weekly sessions, please call Michael Murphy at 306-244-5267.

Thank you to Michael, Sheila, Lynette, and Marlene for sharing your work. We hope these stories are a source of inspiration and encouragement to all.

Social Media Coordinator Needed!

Our current coordinator is moving away (how dare she!) and we need someone new to keep our Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and website up to date. The position is as much work as you’d like to make it – and only requires basic knowledge in social media platforms and a willingness to learn. The only commitment is attending our monthly meetings so you know what to post!

Email our current coordinator Nicole at coco.smith804@gmail.com if you think this is something you’d be interested in.

Summer is right around the corner ☀️… why not plan a block party to have an excuse to shut down the street and get to know your neighbours? Not sure where to start? We’ve got you covered:

Toolkits are available to anyone in the city who’d like to host a block party:

The CPCA will cover the block party permit cost for the first five blocks to sign up.
