Impact on the Community Message from Guy Parizeau, President, and Juliana Rodger, Acting Executive Officer Causeway Foundation is grateful to have successfully completed another year of fundraising on behalf of Causeway Work Centre. The programs at Causeway have a powerful impact on the lives of people experiencing difficulty finding or maintaining employment because of a mental health issue or a disability. Moving forward, we turn our focus toward meeting the increasing demand for our programs and services. The work our donors support is incredibly important. Together we are building an economically sustainable and inclusive community, where everyone feels welcome. I would like to sincerely thank the Board of Directors, our Fundraising Committee, and our caring supporters for their commitment to mental health. Guy Parizeau Juliana Rodger

Your Support Matters Adrianna dropped out of high school at age 16, but the birth of her daughter at age 18 prompted her to return. I decided it was time to get my life together for the both of us, she says. After completing high school, however, Adrianna developed a drug addiction. She spent 3 months in treatment, where she was diagnosed with PTSD from traumas inflicted in her young life. Adrianna turned to Causeway for help finding a job. She was placed in the Solutions for Youth program, which helps youth with mental illness develop skills to get a job or return to school. Adrianna has excelled over the course of her placement, doing meal preparation at the Parkdale Food Centre. We barely even have to train her. We show her things once shes a natural in the kitchen, says Adriannas supervisor. I just want to say thank you to every single person that has made Solutions for Youth possible, says Adrianna. I think this program is such an incredible opportunity.
