One of the biggest challenges I’ve seen in our community isn’t always a lack of services—it’s knowing where to find them. Sometimes it’s a senior looking for support, a family trying to navigate services for a child, someone facing financial hardship, or a resident simply trying to figure out who to call.
One of the things I’ve discovered is that support often already exists. The challenge isn’t always a lack of services—it’s that people don’t know what’s available or how to access it.
That’s one of the reasons I created Finding a Way. I wanted to make it easier for people to discover the organizations, programs, and resources that are already making a difference in our community.
To me, building a stronger community isn’t just about creating new programs. It’s also about connecting people with the services we already have, encouraging organizations to work together, and helping residents find the support they need.
No one person has every answer. As your councillor, my role is to ask questions, connect people with the right resources, bring organizations together when possible, and help residents navigate the support that’s already available. Good leadership isn’t about doing everything yourself—it’s about helping people find solutions and making sure no one has to face challenges alone.
