Our Story

The story behind the Red Deer Outreach Centre began with a simple yet powerful vision: to create a supportive oasis for those in need. Years ago, I saw individuals in my community struggling silently with challenges that often went unnoticed. This inspired me to take action, leading to the formation of the Central Alberta Women's Outreach Society, which has now evolved into the Red Deer Outreach Centre. Each program we offer is a reflection of the stories shared with us—stories that energize our mission. Every interaction drives home the understanding that healing is not a one-size-fits-all process. Our journey has taught us about resilience, hope, and the transformative power of community support. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to honoring the voices of those we serve, adapting our services to meet their ever-changing needs. The essence of our work lies in these personal connections, making us not just a service provider but a trusted partner in the journey toward wellness.
