Heartfelt gratitude to everyone who attended, performed, spoke, and supported this year’s Silver Lining Gala. It was an unforgettable evening filled with hope, joy, laughter, music, and even some dance!
A special thank you to Cedar (Lorraine Clements) for opening the evening with grace, leading us in prayer and song that celebrated the resilience, healing, and joy found along the recovery journey. We were honoured to celebrate her own remarkable milestone of 18 years in recovery.
We were proud to recognize Kellee Reid as our 2026 Community Champion, and thank Audrey Sabiston for accepting on her behalf.

🥊💥👊
Yesterday, the Women and Mothers in Continuing Recovery group kicked things up a notch with an exhilarating boxing session. It was an exciting experience filled with energy and empowerment!
Located on Treaty 1 Territory, Umbrella Boxing (formerly Queer/Enby Boxing) is for members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and people of marginalized genders to learn the sport of boxing. This is a space for community members who do not feel safe or included in the current gym or boxing club environments.
Umbrella Boxing is for those who want to experience boxing and boxing fitness in an environment that rejects fatphobia, body-shaming, misogyny, and other forms of discrimination and harmful messaging about health and fitness.
Established by Jesse, a non-binary, Indigenous leader who has been a part of the boxing community since 2010, the exclusion of binary-divided sports is known firsthand.
Participants of SRWC discovered tremendous benefits in the physical and mental challenges boxing presented during our session.
Thanks again, Jesse!
Trust Rehabilitation Counsellor and Super Dad Gord to bring the dad jokes.
Happy Friday!
