Meet Trish, our Volunteer Coordinator and this month's staff spotlight feature! ✨
For nearly 15 years, Trish has been connecting volunteers with meaningful opportunities at HPCAS, building connections that help our community in countless ways.
"I love working with …volunteers who bring kindness, empathy and generosity into everything they do. Knowing that I play a part in enabling those connections gives my work a deep sense of purpose."
What sets this work apart is an intentional focus on creating inclusive volunteer opportunities that deeply reflect our vision, mission and values — diverse communities, removing barriers and ensuring every volunteer feels valued and respected. Every choice Trish makes sees the bigger picture of how individual acts of support create networks that extend far beyond our office.
When not coordinating volunteers, you might catch Trish behind the DJ booth! Alongside 25 years of spinning tracks and getting people dancing, there's also a love for woodworking – a completely different pace that allows for slowing down and building something meaningful.
We could go on and on about the impact Trish makes here, the commitment to equity, connection and community, but what really stands out is how 15 years of dedication has shaped so much of what makes HPCAS strong.
Thank you, Trish, for bringing people together in service of children and families 💚

Motherhood looks different for everyone. Some hold children in their arms, others hold them in their hearts. Some are raising the children they gave birth to, while others are raising children who came to them in different ways.
Today we honour all who mother – those who comfort scraped …knees and celebrate first steps, who worry through sleepless nights and beam with pride at small victories.
To the mothers navigating joy, grief, hope and everything in between – Happy Mother's Day 💐

May 7th is National Child and Youth Mental Health Day, and it's about something simple but powerful: letting young people know they matter.
When children and youth have adults who genuinely listen and care about their experiences, everything changes. Young people who feel connected …experience lower levels of anxiety and depression, higher resilience, and a stronger ability to cope. It's not about having all the answers or fixing every problem. It's about being present and showing up consistently.
We work with young people every day who are navigating tough situations. What makes the biggest difference? Having someone in their corner who believes in them and sees their potential, even when they can't see it themselves.
Today we encourage you to find a moment to really connect with a young person in your life. Ask how they're doing and actually listen to the answer. These conversations matter more than we might think.

Meet Trish, our Volunteer Coordinator and this month's staff spotlight feature! ✨
For nearly 15 years, Trish has been connecting volunteers with meaningful opportunities at HPCAS, building connections that help our community in countless ways.
"I love working with …volunteers who bring kindness, empathy and generosity into everything they do. Knowing that I play a part in enabling those connections gives my work a deep sense of purpose."
What sets this work apart is an intentional focus on creating inclusive volunteer opportunities that deeply reflect our vision, mission and values — diverse communities, removing barriers and ensuring every volunteer feels valued and respected. Every choice Trish makes sees the bigger picture of how individual acts of support create networks that extend far beyond our office.
When not coordinating volunteers, you might catch Trish behind the DJ booth! Alongside 25 years of spinning tracks and getting people dancing, there's also a love for woodworking – a completely different pace that allows for slowing down and building something meaningful.
We could go on and on about the impact Trish makes here, the commitment to equity, connection and community, but what really stands out is how 15 years of dedication has shaped so much of what makes HPCAS strong.
Thank you, Trish, for bringing people together in service of children and families 💚
