Elpizo Connecting With You
Elpizo Community Connect has partnered with other non-profit organizations such as SOVEREIGN Core, Victim Services, and Children’s Aid Society to provide several support groups. Some are mixed groups (funded by Elpizo Counselling Services) and some are women only groups (funded by Canadian Women’s Foundation).
Stay Safe
We understand that you may have had to adjust to being alone, isolated, or together with others all day. So whether you are working from home, live alone, are ill, worried, anxious or just trying to navigate around this new “norm”, we have a safe space for YOU!
