Green Wood Coalition uses a community model of caring to walk alongside people living with poverty, mental and physical illness, drug dependency, and disability. As a radically inclusive, street-level organization, we engage through relational approaches, healing through art, supports for recovery, and community activation.
Through relational approaches our staff assist and empower individuals who are having difficulty navigating the systems, and barriers surrounding housing, income, healthcare and food security by providing individualized information and support.
We support people living with substance dependency to achieve better health through harm reduction tools, and pathways to recovery such as the Redpath Addiction Recovery Program. And our WrapAround life planning program promotes agency and healing with trained facilitators.
And we are committed to sharing, advocating and supporting neighbour-to-neighbour approaches to community building.
By focusing on what’s strong, not what’s wrong, we can work towards positive change that leaves no one behind. We believe in finding hope together and that a healthy, vibrant community includes everyone.
