A Message from VIW MOUHSS. Great News!
I am writing to you all today with some really wonderful news for those that do not already know; the VIW MOUHSS has been approved for a second round of funding meaning the Mobile Outreach Unit for Health and Social Supports (MOUHSS – “Moose”) will continue one day a week in the community of Gold River until July 2023!!! The new coordinator, Kaylin, will be supporting this project which will continue on MONDAYS from 10:30am-12:30pm and will continuously be located at the Jack Christiansen Centre parking lot in Gold River.
Access to the MOUHSS is free, confidential, and for anyone and everyone (all ages, backgrounds, demographics, otherwise). With this funding extension we will be looking to expand our project to incorporate potential paid peer programming, weekly hot meals, and increased connections and resources. It is vitally important to the success of this project, that everyone assist in spreading the information and/or come to check the mobile unit out yourselves. As we all know, for regional resources to be funded, we must continue to see a need & utilization. We see this through the number of folks who access the space weekly, your assistance in ensuring those who may benefit from this resource know how and when to access is so very much appreciated.
We will be hosting an information and access day to introduce Kaylin and the second go-around for the MOUHSS on MONDAY, DECEMBER 5TH 2022 10:00AM-12:30PM on the unit at the JCC parking lot. (weather dependant)
Here you can check in with both Kaylin and myself (RSW), provide your feedback about what you hope to see on the unit over the next 8 months, and access the services and supplies on board. We hope to see as many folks as possible out to this event on the 5th to show our funders how much this service is needed in community. I look forward to seeing each and every one of you out at the December 5th check in day!!!
