Here's what our members have to say ...

“I am better equipped to cope with the stress of being a caregiver. I no longer feel isolated in this experience and know that I have support and resources that I can call on when needed. It is a great comfort that I carry with me throughout my day.”

“Through support and counselling programs I found hope and emotional support. I learned coping skills and how to create new and healthy habits and practices that have made me feel happier, more hopeful and less stressed about my terminal illness. I feel more like myself again.”

“I found my experience at Wellspring to be comforting, educational, fun and reassuring. I felt respected, heard and understood.”
