Groups
Groups are where CORE participants can share information and stories, ask questions, learn, and collaborate. Open discussion groups can be accessed by any member of CORE; closed groups are available by invitation only.
A few of our groups are looking for group leaders from across the province!
Current Callouts:
- Immigrant Senior Sector Connections group is a few months old and is building their Alberta footprint. If you serve immigrant older adults, we are looking for your voice as a general member, occasional volunteer, or even a group (co)lead!
- Food Security group has had capacity changes this year and is looking for more group (co)leads to support the current group leads.
- Social Connection, Wellness, and Mental Health group has had capacity changes this year, and the current leads can no longer run the group. This valuable and dynamic group is looking for new leads to take the reins.
- Emergency and Disaster Preparedness group has had capacity changes this year, and the current leads are retiring. With this ever-increasing issue, this important group is looking for new leads to step in.
- Intergenerational CoP group is building a National Collaborative. If you do intergeneration work on a provincial or national level, we are looking for new members!
We need you!
Whatever your capacity level, there is a place for you on CORE Alberta.
If you would like to talk more about group leadership, please contact us!
