Social Support Outreach

The Northern Hills Community Association are partnering with the BowWest Community Resource Centre and Closer to Home. We initiate this service with an intention to meet the needs of North West and North Central Calgary residents.


By BowWest Community Resource Centre

BowWest will continue to serve people through these dynamic times. To do our part to contain the spread of COVID-19, we are following best practices as communicated by Alberta Health Services (AHS).

Those best practices include changes to how we deliver our service. During this period of voluntary social isolation, our Outreach Thursdays are cancelled.  Our Community Advocates will be happy to serve our clientele by phone.

BowWest seeks to meet the needs of North Calgary residents by offering outreach, referral support for singles, seniors and families – no restrictions.

By Closer to Home

Closer to Home’s North Central Family Resource Network (FRN) builds family resiliency by partnering with families to identify challenges, strengths, goals and desired outcomes, and helping families to access community resources, providing information about programs, and removing any barriers to access. The FRN will be a one-stop-shop for families living between Deerfoot Trail and Crowchild Trail, north of 16 Avenue North.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, when many families across our city are facing additional stressors such as job loss, social isolation, negative mental health impacts and more, our services – delivered creatively to ensure the health of our community and staff – are more important than ever. Please contact us to learn more about the FRN, tell us about your community, or to access supports. We have a lot of exciting, free online programs starting in June; please contact us for more information and to register! For more information, please visit website at https://closertohome.com . Please contact at(403) 543 -0555 or by email familyresourcenetwork@closertohome.com
