Red Deer-born ‘Magnets of Hope’ project to help Albertan post-secondary students in times of crisis
Red Deer’s newly minted Sendero Centre — formerly the Central Alberta Sexual Assault Support Centre — was the site for excitement on Friday.
Staff, community members, as well as Alberta’s ministers of children and family services, and health, were on hand for the formal changeover which was announced last week.
The Sendero Centre has been operating in Red Deer and serving central Alberta for 38 years; Executive Director Patricia Arango hopes the new moniker will be more welcoming, and serve as less of a reminder of what a victim has experienced.
