Orangeville has a lot to boast about for a small community. I am proud to be associated with 'Choices Youth Shelter'. Last week I was invited to the Opening Ceremony of 'Next Choice'. Next Choice is a spin off from 'Choices Youth Shelter' in Orangeville. It's a resource within Dufferin County that offers youths between 16 and 24 years an alternative to living on the streets and also supports their transition to a productive and brighter future.
Next Choice was brought about to provide this transition to youths who are commited to making their future better and brighter.
The staff at Choices are amazing individuals who are greatly committed to helping these youths. It certainly is not an easy challenge, but it is definitely a worthwhile one. Mary Vervoort is Choices' Executive Director and works tirelessly with the other members to see that these youths have a home away from home.
The wonderful thing that keeps this home going is the support of so so many people of Dufferin County. These residents are committed to helping Choices not just morally but in various ways such as donating their time, money, efforts, manual labour and themselves in doing whatever it takes to providing for these youths who pass through this home. Mary and her staff see to it that these youths take responsiblity for their own actions and teach them to be aware that they have the choice and ability to improve themselves in ways unimaginable.
May God bless everyone who gives back to their community and may all the youths of Dufferin County and Nationwide know that there is always that special 'angel' who will be there for them if or when the need arises.
Sincerely
