From Patti Flaherty:
On behalf of CONNECT I am very pleased to announced that CONNECT Lake Country is now officially open. On January 15th we received both the Occupancy Permit from the District of Lake Country and a License for the 1st of 6 homes which will serve 7 people. Two gentlemen have moved into their new home and they expressed their enthusiastic approval of their new digs. Their reaction was both emotional and overwhelming and was a great way to celebrate a very special day for all of us at CONNECT.
On behalf of everyone at CONNECT I would like to thank those of you who have been a part of this important and exciting project. Of course we have lots of work ahead of us but we have marked a huge turning point and a monumental milestone.
We anticipate that the 2nd home will be ready for Licensing shortly and the last 4 homes gradually over the next 4-6 weeks.
We are now starting the next part of our journey – the more important part – to implement our collective vision that we believe will be transformational in the way that people with brain injury are supported and served in British Columbia. How very exciting – I feel very fortunate and privileged to be a part of this.
