Holiday Supports in the Bow Valley

Caring for Our Community This Season!

As the holiday season approaches, Canadian Rockies Public Schools (CRPS) remains focused on supporting the well-being of its students, families, and staff. While this time of year is one of celebration, it can also bring stress, uncertainty, or additional challenges. CRPS encourages everyone to remain vigilant and aware of the needs of those in our community, ensuring help is available for anyone who requires extra support.

In collaboration with local organizations, CRPS is pleased to share a comprehensive list of resources under “Holiday Supports in the Bow Valley.” These supports include access to food, social services, and mental health assistance for families and individuals during the holidays. Whether it’s a warm meal from a community program, a food hamper for a family in need, or vital mental health resources, the Bow Valley has a network of caring services ready to help. Programs such as the Bow Valley Food Bank, Banff Food Rescue, and Community Table Dinners offer practical assistance to ensure no one is left behind. Social services, including mental health helplines, urgent support through hospitals, and counseling services, are also available for those experiencing emotional or personal difficulties.

CRPS recognizes that holiday challenges are unique to each individual or family. Whether it’s financial strain, social isolation, or emotional stress, reaching out for support is an important step toward well-being. With partnerships across the Bow Valley, these services reflect the shared commitment to building a community that cares for all its members.

For anyone seeking assistance, the “Holiday Supports in the Bow Valley” resource is available and offers the help you or someone you know may need. CRPS encourages families, staff, and community members to share this information, ensuring every member of the Bow Valley feels supported, safe, and cared for this season.
