Connections First: New Directions

Hello! As you may know, Burns Memorial Fund has assumed the management of the Connections First website. We envision Connections First as an ongoing central hub for all major natural supports work in Alberta.

Our aim is to create an online space where individuals and organizations can learn more about natural supports, access resources and guides for promoting natural supports in their community/organizations, and amplify the importance of this work through their own connections and networks.

By sharing this collection of common sources, information and resources, we hope Connections First both unifies and strengthens the natural supports work in the province and beyond.

Have any natural supports resources or projects you’d like to share? Please contact Kendall Quantz at kendall.quantz@burnsfund.com.

Currently on this page you will find informative blog posts about natural supports, mentorship, out of school time, and more from the Max Bell Foundation/Burns Memorial Fund policy fellowship. Stay tuned for natural supports project updates, resources, and opportunities!
