Regina holiday fundraiser to support those in addiction treatment

Clients living at the 30-day impatient facility were asked to make a wish list this Christmas, and with help from community donations made online, staff helped to fulfill those essential asks and needs.

Jackets, boots, soaps and candies were crossed off some of the lists, providing not only something to look forward to on Christmas Day, but also some normalcy to those navigating treatment during the holiday season.
