What is the IONCG Program?

The “Innovative Outreach for Nutrition, Cooking and Gardening” is in its second year, here at Powell River Brain Injury Society.
Last year (2014), we built a fenced garden area, with raised garden beds and had success with many of our crops.
With major funding from Opportunities Fund For Persons with Disabilities and increased funding from B.C. Community Gaming Grant, we are able to further develop our unique program.
The Oppsfund has allowed us to employ 4 clients part-time. These and our many volunteers are exceeding our expectations, and we are all learning valuable skills that will enrich our lives.

Mark your calendars for our art workshops

We have some special guests returning to teach and lead us for Wednesdays’ Art Attacks.

Lowell Morris will be here October 15 & 22.

Ursula Medley will be here November 5 & 12.

Come in and try your hand at something new – you will be pleasantly surprised by the results!
