ANAK is an Ally

On May 5, 2012 ANAK members and Kapatid Mentorship volunteers participated in a day-long Ally orientation session hosted by Dr. Reece Malone (Rainbow Resource Centre). This training facilitates ANAK's role in providing meaningful resources to all Filipino-Canadian youth and families.

ANAK stands strongly against homophobia and bullying.

Vigil Against Domestic Violence

Newcomer families face new challenges as they settle into their new lives in Canada. Violence and abuse should never pose as the solution. In light of the tragedy that happened recently in Winnipeg, the community is holding a prayer vigil to call for peace at home.

Please join us this Saturday 31 March 2012 (5:30pm) at the PCCM (737 Keewatin).
