From all of us in the #CANFARfamily, we're so grateful for the work and progress made by Alex Filiatrault over these last 8 years, and are excited to announce that Roxanne Ma and Kevin Noguera are going to share the role of Interim Co-Executive Directors of our foundation.
CANFAR's impact has evolved to include strategic implementation investments among community partners, and Roxanne and Kevin are well-positioned to help lead our funding expansion over the coming months.

“North Bay has not had an around-the-clock needle syringe program since 2017, which has made it harder for people to get harm reduction supplies when they need them,” said Stuart Nichols, Peer Outreach Support Team Lead at True Self Debwewendizwin.
“Our North Bay Healthbox fills this gap in services and responds to the voices of people with lived experience.”
