Connection in Action: Practical Skills for Building Neighbourly Connections

is a region-wide initiative focused on strengthening neighbourly connections, personal belonging, and community resilience in neighbourhoods across the CRD. Through an interactive workshop on May 14th and an activation campaign during Loneliness Awareness Week (June 15-21, 2026), the project inspires, equips, and supports participants to take action to create and strengthen their own intergenerational communities of support.

Free dinner provided | Free to attend

This workshop will cover:

• An introduction to the power of skills-building for grassroots neighbour-to-neighbour connection
• Calls to action to strengthen belonging and connection in our neighbourhoods
• Early planning for activities during Loneliness Awareness Week in June
• Time to connect with other community builders
• Free dinner, so we can relax, socialize, and connect around the table
• Practical next steps and ways to stay engaged with a growing network of “connectors” across the region
