COMMUNITY OPPORTUNITIES
Socially Progressing Together
We believe that when individuals come together as a collective to identify, share, and create from their passions, values, and skills, mental wellness can be encouraged through social action. At First Person Project we offer FREE opportunities for the communities we work alongside to explore their passions and see their potential.

Culture, Community, Connection. These Community Conversations are based on the power of storytelling, memory, and experiences within neighbourhoods. Using creative ways we encourage people to bring their story and connect with their neighbourhood.
