SUMMARY:Community Visioning Session - Kenora FIREFLY Site
DESCRIPTION:What could be possible for children and families in Kenora? \n\n\n\nWhat if Kenora had a place where infants\, children\, youth and families could access care\, services and supports\, in a way that felt designed just for them? \n\n\n\nRight now\, FIREFLY is in the functional programming phase of planning for space on the future Campus of Care\, which means we’re thinking about what this space could offer. \n\n\n\nBut before we start defining the space\, we want to hear from families: \n\n\n\n\nWhere are the gaps for children and youth in Kenora today?\n\n\n\nWhat do families need?\n\n\n\nWhat would make accessing care easier\, more welcoming and more positive?\n\n\n\nWhat services\, programs\, spaces and experiences could we bring together?\n\n\n\nMost importantly\, what could be possible if we designed this with our community?\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a Community Visioning Session \n\n\n\n📅 September 10🕐 1:00–4:30 p.m.💻 Virtual (email thanstead@fireflynw.ca for the link) \n\n\n\nWe’re inviting clients\, families\, caregivers\, community partners\, healthcare providers\, educators\, organizations\, businesses and people from all sectors to join us. You don’t need to have all the answers. We want your ideas\, experiences\, perspectives and dreams. \n\n\n\nThis is our chance to dream BIG about what Kenora could offer children\, youth and families while accessing care. Help us imagine what could be possible and shape the future of pediatric care in our community.
