Moni Loewen from ROC Eastman receives a $2,000 grant from The Chrysalis Fund presented by Sherril Reimer. The grant supported ROC to expand its services to include a leisure education program for each family. “Research has also demonstrated that by engaging children and youth in positive recreational endeavours, you decrease their risk of being criminally involved. ROC strives to provide each child with an experience that will increase their feelings of self-worth and self-efficacy, and to give the family the necessary tools to sustain the child’s recreation pursuits beyond ROC” (ROC grant application).
