For a little context, read on:

Platforms come and go, and I know there are increasingly on-trend platforms these days that I’m not playing with (hi Tikotok, hi substack), but one thing I appreciate about wordpress, the platform that this blog is hosted on, is the stats you get to see. Like this one:

Over the past 12 years, community members have shared 1.5 million words on ways to strengthen and support community, resilience and reconciliation.

The funding for the project comes to an end this year, and I have been holding this question for a while: is this the best use of resources?

It’s not a question I can answer by myself.

So I did not re-apply for funding to continue the Wellness Almanac in its current form.

In January, I will present a wrap-up report to the PDIF Committee, from the Village of Pemberton and the SLRD. The wrap-up will also be shared with the Nuk̓w7ántwal̓ Intergovernmental Committee, which is made up of leadership from the Líl’wat Nation, Village of Pemberton and SLRD, the three project funders.

To inform that wrap-up report, I want YOUR input on the question: “where could we go next?”.

I want to ground any recommendations, ideas and suggestions that I share, about how we can continue to strengthen resilience and reconciliation, in what YOU THINK.

After all, I’ve had a word count of about a million to share what I think.

 A wonderful group of beta-testers has had a crack at this survey, and reported back that it takes between 10 and 30 minutes.

So, would you do a huge favour?

Would you give us half an hour of your time, and reflect on where you’re at, personally, in terms of resilience and reconciliation, and how this community might grow towards being an even more beautiful place for all of us who call this area home.

You can do the survey on your phone (although it’s harder to input responses in longer form, so if you have a lot to say, maybe sit at a keyboard?)

The survey will close December 22, and I’ll share the results here at the Wellness Almanac.

Kúkwstum̓c’kalap! Thanks from me to all of you.
