  • At Grant House, our Rock Garden began to take on some colour during our OD Awareness Day activity. As a method of art therapy, this allowed participating women to reflect, express, be a active part of the moment and community. 
 
The Rock Garden is now an important part of the Grant House that reminds us to be present with our connections, community and ourselves. 💙

Overdose Awareness Day 2025 at Grant House 💜 Today, our Street Haven community gathered to honour lives lost, celebrate resilience, and stand together against stigma. We were grateful to welcome guest speakers Kendra Lamarre and Lin Sallay from Street Health, whose words powerfully reminded us why this day matters. Clients from our Addiction and Mental Health program also shared moving pieces from their Creative Writing Group, giving voice to courage, struggle, and hope. The ceremony closed with a reflective activity, as participants created commemorative rocks for our new Reflective Rock Garden—a lasting tribute in our memorial space. Thank you to everyone who joined us in building a community where every life is valued. #OverdoseAwarenessDay #StreetHaven #CommunityHealing #addictionrecovery #addictionawareness
