“Through my involvement as a board director with Community Connections Society of Southeast BC, I’ve gained a huge appreciation for the vital role CCS plays in our communities. I’m proud of this organization, its caring staff and the quality programs and services they deliver; CCS is making a difference for so many people. As a board member, I am constantly being informed, impressed, and energized by what the society is accomplishing, and am thankful for the experience.”

Colleen Osiowy

“Before becoming involved as a Board member with Community Connections, I had no idea of the great community work that they were doing. I have learned that CCS plays an important role within communities of the East Kootenays offering programs for children, Senior citizens, and our vulnerable population. I have found being on the Board an informative and rewarding experience!”
