Please join us in recognizing Clinton Ignatov, a valued member of the Onyx Community Services team.

Clinton first joined us as a student volunteer during the months of July and August, where he quickly demonstrated dedication, compassion, and a strong commitment to supporting others. Through his hard work and connection with clients, he became an integral part of our team.

Since September, Clinton has continued his journey with us in a professional capacity as an ACSW Supervisor. In this role, he regularly connects with clients offering consistent check-ins, supporting discussions around substance use, and helping individuals build healthy routines. He is passionate about guiding clients in setting meaningful goals and working toward more stable, fulfilling lives.

Clinton’s thoughtful approach and genuine care for those he serves reflect the values of Onyx Community Services. Outside of his work, he enjoys reading non-fiction, exploring computer programming, and studying media.

We are proud to have Clinton on our team and look forward to his continued impact.

The red dress serves as a powerful symbol of the absence felt by families, communities, and generations impacted by this ongoing crisis. It is a call to awareness, reflection, and action.

At Onyx Community Services, we stand in solidarity with Indigenous communities, acknowledging the need for justice, accountability, and continued advocacy. We are committed to listening, learning, and supporting pathways toward healing and change.
