Overview
Our Vision
To be a beacon of hope and inclusion, where every member is embraced with compassion and encouraged to reach their full potential.
What We Offer
At the Campbell River Beacon Club, we provide a safe, respectful, and welcoming environment for adults living with chronic mental health and substance misuse challenges. Nestled in the heart of Campbell River, our club is more than just a building; it’s a sanctuary of hope, friendship, and healing.
Each day at the Beacon Club opens the door to new possibilities - whether it’s sharing stories over coffee, exploring creativity, or learning about nutrition and healthy living. Our programs are designed to nurture the whole person, guiding members on a journey toward health and well-being. We offer the following and more;
- Psychosocial Rehabilitation: Supporting recovery and resilience.
- Relapse Prevention: Fostering long-term wellness.
- Peer Support Programs: Building strength through shared experiences, trust, and connection.
- Vocational Training & Life Skills: Equipping members for success.
- Nutritious Lunches: Served Monday to Friday.
- Creative & Recreational Activities: From art and games to mindfulness and leisure.
- Food Bank Deliveries: Ensuring access to essential resources.
Our Community Impact
Community-based social support, such as the CR Beacon Club, can provide significant economic benefits to the City by reducing public and social impacts. This includes fewer emergency room visits, law enforcement and ambulance interventions, and instances of homelessness, ultimately lowering the overall financial burden on society.
Funding
As a registered charity (#135262129RR0001), we are funded in part by Island Health and rely on the generosity of community donations and fundraisers like this to raise the additional $60,000 needed annually to meet our budget.
