So grateful to those of you who are willing to say how impactful safety city has been and how important it is for the needs of the new Safety Village.
Here is just one I’ll share from a very special parent in this community who has a powerful story behind her plight to see the changes needed in our community for our children and their families.
*This is very important to me and cant wait to watch this thrive into something big for our community. I think these two are about to be the biggest change our community needs desperately. It truly does take a village and takes everyone to use thier voice!! Our youth needs our help more then ever right now , thier mental health is at an alarming rate and they need more resources as well as families need building kind of support and help groups so kids dont feel like its just on them. We as parents need to step in now to save our kids future by having programs and supports that teach our children dangers of owning social media accounts and cyber bullying and have programs that help teach us to teach our kids about social media and working as a team rather then leaving our babies to face the not so good and the ripple affect if something bad did happened all alone. Its not just about social media its about life safety and learning about road safety and paying attention to our surroundings and so much more. Unfortunately some how us parents stepped back and let our kids go a little to a head of us so I strongly believe safety city is what our community needs to bring our families back together, our youth back to being just kids. most importantly its what we need to help our babies who are not making good choices and not using not nice words or actions the help and support they need because they are not bad kids and they shouldnt be punished and labeled with a name "bully"unless it's absolutely dangerous then of course they need to be held accountable but they need to be educated and given support and showen love and respect. They are just kids making poor choices and as adults its our role to be a village and support them. I understand some have very strong opinions and your own thoughts but lets put that aside and think of our kids and there future and lets think of how things are in our kids lives right now and how distant families have become. We all need to understand this is going to be the biggest impact medicine hat ever felt if we stand strong together and help them by being either being a voice , a support, volunteer or whatever it may be , big or small we will all make this thrive. Sorry ill stop rambling lol im just very passionate about this project because my two children who I lost to mental health didnt have this as a possibility in there future before it got dark and scary 😪 but now we can save these babies , one life at a time!! So lets do this together medicine hat!!!!
As a community member in Medicine Hat we hope you take the time, ask the questions, volunteer your time, resources and partnership with us to build this new center.
