Announcements

We often hear from our clients that they are inspired by us; and yet, so often it is the other way around! Our 2024 Community Report shares stories of inspiration from clients, chronicles inspiring words from our staff, and offers a few highlights of initiatives that help those in our community who turn to us for support.

$2.5 million investment will help youth with complex needs access care closer to home.

Today, Lutherwood announced it is changing its name to Starling Community Services as of Monday May 13, 2024.

Having a sense of community is an essential part of well-being, stability, and how we see success in our lives. In a strong community, people feel safe, heard, understood and a strong sense of belonging. We share ideas, perspectives, and talents which allow for collective problem-solving and growth.

The Lutherwood Child and Family Foundation is thrilled to announce that our week-long Steps for Kids fundraiser was a success! Thanks to the generous support of our community, we were able to meet our fundraising goal, raising an impressive $100,000.

With the generous donation from our community, more supportive space for youth in crisis and experiencing homelessness in our region will be available as our Life Launch program expands from two to eight beds.

Steps for Kids returns to its in-person roots with a kick-off walk on Sunday, May 7, at Lutherwood’s Children's Mental Health Centre in the north end of Waterloo.

It is hard to be strong when faced with adversity, especially over such a long period of time. But hope and courage are often the best tools for moving forward. Our Community Report 2022 offers some great examples of people who did just that in their own life journey.

Lutherwood has worked closely with Studio Locale, a local marketing and development agency, to create a clean and bright updated website full of new features!

The demand for mental health services has surged as a result of the pandemic, and Lutherwood is counting on its annual Steps for Kids fundraising walk to raise funds that will support children and youth with their mental health issues.
