Today, on Alberta Heritage Day, we reflect on the stories, traditions, and values that have shaped our communities and the people we hold dear.

Heritage is more than history, it lives on through the memories we share, the lives we celebrate, and the legacies that continue through generations.

As we honour Alberta's rich and diverse heritage, we also remember those who came before us with gratitude and respect.

From all of us at BCFH, we wish you a meaningful Alberta Heritage Day!

After a significant loss, many of us hope we'll eventually get the old version of ourselves back.
But the reality is, the old us often died alongside the life we once knew.
Grief changes us.
And part of the healing journey is making peace with the person we've become.
That's much easier said than done.

Do people around you expect you to become the old you again?

Do you still hope to become the old you?
