Angels’ Crossing Board of Directors and staff are committed to P.E.I.’s first Preventative Holistic Model of support for vulnerable youth ages 16-30.
Under the charitable organization Santa’s Angels, we are expanding our work year round with Angels’ Crossing while continuing to uphold the integrity of our Christmas support progam. Angel’s Crossings Board of Directors is composed of both inside directors (employees providing a direct link between organizational operations and strategic decision making) and outside directors (individuals not employed by the organization, who provide specialized expertise).
Angel’s Crossing is extremely grateful for our Board and Advisors, providing valuable input covering a wide range of disciplines including housing, mental health, addictions, trauma recovery, leadership, policy, human resources, education, anti-trafficking and exploitation, workforce development, legal and financial advice. This ensures the holistic model and framework of collaboration is met with integrity.
“There is a recognized need for a holistic response to the underlying causes of the addiction and the obstacles of recovery among them homelessness, unemployment and mental health issues. Housing, vocational training and counselling constitutes a much better more cost-effective approach than how we deal with these societal issues today which is to silo them off and ignore the obvious interconnections between them.”
