Why Walk? Spoken Word Poetry

Hip Hop Artist and one time Youth Outreach Worker Switch tells us why we should take a walk to support Coldest Night of the Year.

About CMHA Cowichan Valley

The Canadian Mental Health Association - Cowichan Valley Branch, or the CMHA-Cowichan Valley Branch, facilitates access to the resources people require to maintain and improve mental health and community integration, build resilience, and support recovery from mental illness and addiction.

Read More

The Cowichan Valley has an estimated 400+ individuals that are unhoused or precariously housed (couch surfing, living in vehicles). As housing becomes more scarce and less affordable, these numbers are increasing. Unfortunately, many of those individuals are youth. At a time in their lives when they need stability, direction and support, they have none. Some have left foster care or unhealthy family situations, some have disabilities and many struggle with trauma that we can't even begin to imagine. During the Coldest Night of the Year, we walk to raise funds for safe spaces and programming to support homeless youth in our community.


How can we help? We can start by providing a safe place for youth to drop in. We can start by listening while we provide the basics such as a warm meal, medical attention, a warm shower and clean clothes. We can learn about what they need and direct them to resources in the community. We could provide shelter and a soft place to land in hard times. Our goal is to provide the vital connection needed to change the course of their lives - and you can help by joining us on Saturday, February 22nd, 2025 for the Coldest Night of the Year.
