Course Information
Our courses offer more structured learning experiences than a typical group program. They’re designed with input from qualified and experienced educators based on contemporary learning theory. Each course has clear learning outcomes and activities to explore and build knowledge.
Nothing! All courses are free, but you must register before attending.
Our courses are friendly, informative, engaging and enjoyable to help students on their recovery journey. Two trainers co-facilitate each course – one an expert by education, working in their field of expertise; the other an expert by experience, those who have personal experience who will share their experience as part of the course.
None. All of our courses are open to everyone at all levels and at all stages of recovery. All we require is an open mind and a willingness to participate.
The in-person courses are held at 10015 110 Avenue in Grande Prairie, Alberta.
The online courses are held on Zoom and a meeting link will be emailed to you.
Anyone aged 16+ affected by mental health or addiction who want to explore the recovery journey and their own wellness. Those who are supporting a family or friend, as well as people working in the mental health field are welcome to attend. No referral is needed.
