Our Response to COVID-19
A message from Big Hill Haven's Board of Directors
In light of the current COVID-19 a global pandemic we wish to assure the families in our community that we are still here to provide resources, support and emergency shelter as required. We continue to monitor and follow the recommendations and directions provided by Alberta Health Services and all levels of government. With Calgary and surrounding areas classified as being in a State of Emergency, it is important for you to know Cochrane's Big Hill Haven Women’s Shelter is here to help.
Please note, our Emergency Shelter services remain open as we know the incidences of family violence and abuse will increase under the incredible financial and emotional stress of the pandemic. Effective immediately, we are refocusing services to offer support to those impacted by improving your accessibility to our (on-the-ground) Intensive Case Manager and all related services by:
