SUMMARY:Travel Series: Southern Italy & Sicily
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a visit to Southern Italy and Sicily\, one of the world’s most visited destinations and a world traveller favourite destination.\n\n\nAvoid the crowds and join our travelling friend Jennifer who’s back to lead us in the first destination of a monthly series until August 2026.  Explore Rome’s iconic Colosseum\, an ancient  venue for gladiator combatants. The UNESCO World Heritage Sites of St. Peter’s Square and the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican will impress. Find out why the restoration in the Chapel was controversial. \nFrom Rome\, we journey to the Boot of Italy where fascinating towns like ALBEROBELLO display 14th century Trulli whitewashed houses with conical roofs and MATERA\, its cave dwellings. The stunning AMALFI COAST offers colourful terraced houses that seem to cascade into the shimmering sea. Admire the Isle of Capri Gardens of Augustus\, a series of panoramic flower-decked terraces overlooking the famous Faraglioni Rocks. \nIn Sicily\, the TAORMINA Film Festival is held annually at the 2\,300 year old Greek Theatre with Mt. Etna as the perfect backdrop. We’ll also tour The Valley of the Temples in AGRIGENTO\, a premier UNESCO Site which features well-preserved remains of seven 5th century BC Greek temples. \nOur final destination is PALERMO. Here\, we visit a unique blend of architectural styles of its cathedral and the Palace of the Normans where glittering 12th century mosaics will take your breath away.

SUMMARY:Home Horizon Youth Outreach
DESCRIPTION:Our Your S.A.F.E. outreach program works with additional vulnerable youth to identify safe living spaces and provides direction to assist them in regaining control of their lives. Our S.A.F.E. outreach programs serve youth aged 16-29. Since the launch of this program in July 2020\,we have served 127 youth\, with over 1085 service interactions (referrals\, goalsetting\, supplies\, workshops\, etc.)\, many in the Wasaga Beach area. \nThrough our outreach services\, we supply important items such as tents\, sleeping bags\, food\, hygiene products\, grocery gift cards\, masks & sanitizers\, jackets\, hand warmers\, clothes\, and much more. \nThe program also provides support and advocacy for mental health\, physical health (new family doctor)\, legal matters\, financial aid\, rental/tenant advocacy as well as referrals to other housing agencies. \nThe program has been an incredible success to date. It helps one of our most vulnerable populations to avoid falling through the cracks\, providing every individual who come in contact with our outreach worker the chance to feel safe and heard. We work with all marginalized youth regardless of their race\, gender\, sexual orientation\, family situations and socio-economic background. \nOur programs are designed to assist youth struggling with social inequalities with tools that will help them to cope and grow stronger to manage and address any bias they face in life.
