Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I do have coverage through my First Nations status card but all the therapy places that take my Treaty card have a 2 year waiting list. The counsellor I saw is so amazing and I honestly feel so much better just from even one session

"I had hit a road block financially and had run out of money, the gift cards for gas and food saved me and I was able to transition to a better financial space... also the support from ANSWERS in terms of chatting over the phone helped me to feel safe and heard - so so integral to getting myself back up on my feet again!"

Had put off filing taxes for four years because I was unsure who to ask for help. I have a few mental health issues and have trouble with Math and organization (that’s resulted in taxes being a mess and having to pay tons in late fees etc). This was God sent!
