Mental health problems can escalate if not addressed quickly. That’s why the fve Catholic Family Services agencies in the Archdiocese of Toronto now ofer walk-in counselling. This initiative can often meet clients’ need without requiring longer term counselling. Clients report a clinically signifcant increase in confdence that they can tackle their problems. For some agencies, ShareLife is the sole funder of this important program. By supporting ShareLife, you’re helping restore hope to those in crisis.

Thus far our parish has raised $10,733 of our $44,300 – Please pray for the success of our campaign and give as generously as you are able to help us reach our goal.
