Our Story
In 2011, Georgia began providing support to individual students and youth in crisis, offering essential services such as individualized education services, tutoring, advocacy, and adaptations to make education accessible for diverse learners. As the youth she worked with gained skills and confidence to transition fully into their education and adult lives, Georgia forged alliances with other child, youth, and family support professionals. Witnessing the incredible progress facilitated by the community's wrap-around services, she recognized a need for a centralized location.
Today, Georgia is actively collaborating with the Community First Health Co-op in Nelson, BC, spearheading the creation of a learning centre. Our commitment extends to working with children, youth, adults, and families, providing comprehensive support services and referrals. These services are available in person across BC and virtually from any location, ensuring accessibility and empowering individuals
to thrive.
