Carya Spring Programs Launch Today! 💜🌼

Our spring programs have begun at Village Commons, Bowmont Commons and in community hubs across Calgary. This spring, we’re offering programs not just for families and older adults, but for all ages and stages of life. We encourage all Calgarians to access these spaces to connect, learn new skills, and take care of your wellbeing.

Many people begin with a single program, and from there, find additional supports as their needs change. Whether it’s parenting programs, mental health support, financial wellness, or community connection, at Carya we aim to address the needs of the whole community. You don’t have to figure it out alone, and you don’t have to start big. You can just start somewhere.

We welcomed Lunar New Year at Chow and Chatter with a beautiful Tai Chi session led by members of our community. ✨

Thank you to Nina, Ivy, and Zhen Mei for bringing this to Chow and Chatter and inviting everyone to join in. It was wonderful to see so many neighbours following along and celebrating together.

Chow and Chatter is all about connection, and this was a lovely example of what that can look like!

A big thank you to Community Connect YYC for this spotlight! 💜 We’re grateful they took the time to sit down with us to share what people can expect from Unpacking Emotions. Our facilitators create supportive spaces where people can better understand their emotions and learn practical, real-life strategies to navigate them with more confidence.

Thank you for helping share what this group is all about and making support feel more approachable!

Happy Family Day, Calgary! 💜

Today is all about connection, whether that is time with your kids, a visit with grandparents, chosen family, or a simple moment together at home.

We are grateful to support families across our city, today and every day, and to be part of a community where people show up for one another.

If you ever need a little extra support along the way, or know someone who might, we are here for you. Learn more at CaryaCalgary.ca
