New MDABC Video: THRIVE – Community in Connection

  • May 8, 2020May 8, 2020

MDABC celebrates Mental Health Week!

You are unique, you are safe, and you are not alone.

As we thrive through this pandemic, it is very timely to remind ourselves of the importance of support and connection.
Although it is hard during this distancing era, there are many ways to connect virtually. With the re-opening plans ahead, tiny gathering while keeping safe distance re-lives our spirit and satisfy our natural need to be connected. Humans are social beings – innate within us – we are wired to relate.

At MDABC, we want to bridge the gap in mental health service; that is why our Support Groups, Online Counselling and Psychiatry Service remain dynamic, prepared and ready in providing the help our vulnerable people need. The video project by MDABC is a reminder of how support groups can empower someone. To learn and hear that others went through the same challenges – is encouraging to know you are not alone.
We recognize that it takes a lot of courage and energy to seek help. We hope through this video presentation it will inspire some of you or the people you care about to reach out and get that needed support.

Mental Health Week is more than a celebration – it is a campaign to be loud about what mental health is!

Cheering with you,
Team at MDABC

The Art Studios Program

  • March 4, 2020June 9, 2020

Lookout MDABC is excited to announce that we were recently awarded the bid to run VCH Art Studio program!

The Art Studios location is currently hosted at VCH location:  2005 E. 44th Ave, Vancouver BC and has been running for over 22 years.

The Art Studios program is designed from a bio-psycho/social model of recovery and the requirement for membership is people with a Mental Health diagnosis living in Vancouver. Programs are currently available for youth (19-26) and adults which may include: Acrylics/Drawing/Mixed Media/Pottery/Print Making/Watercolor to name a few.

MDABC will be looking at future ways to broaden The Art Studios scope and provide more workshops, classes and open studio opportunities in the future.

We are also required to find a new home for The Art Studios after January 31, 2020 as the building will no longer be available.

The current members and instructors of the program are very proud of their community and development in the arts and we would like to encourage continued growth and development opportunities!

Stay tuned for more updates…..
