HEADWAY NORTH VANCOUVER CLOSURE

 

Memo
 
Date:    Monday, November 29, 2010
 
To:        All Members of the North Vancouver Headway Centre
From:              Lisa Vo, Interim Manager of Headway Centre
Re:         Closure of the North Vancouver Headway Centre
_________________________________________________________________________
As you know, Howe Sound Rehabilitation Services Society has been committed to providing quality programs and services to people of all abilities for over 20 years. It is therefore with great regret that we must inform you of the closure of the North Vancouver Headway Centre.
 
It has been over a year since this pilot program has been available to those on the North Shore. Unfortunately due to continual low attendance and membership it was decided that we cannot at this time operate North Vancouver Headway Centre. Our last day for the North Van location will be December 16, 2010 at which time members may discuss options with Headway staff.
 
We hope that you will instead visit us at our Vancouver location close to Granville and Broadway. This centre operates 5 days a week and offers some of the following:
 
-       Scheduled activities (arts and crafts, walking club, movies, etc.)
-       A chance to learn life skills (computer classes, cooking classes, etc.)
-       Outings into the community (eg. IMAX, community centres, PNE, etc.)
-       Parties ( Holiday Casino Night, Halloween Party, Chinese New Year’s) 
 
To see our latest calendar or for more information on this centre please visit www.howesound.net or call 604-732-4446.
 
If you would like to discuss this matter further, please feel free to contact me at either the email or phone number below. 
 
We thank you for your understanding and hope to see you soon.
 
Sincerely,
 
Lisa Vo
Interim Manager of Supportive Housing & Headway Programs
