Calling Lakes Wellness Centre is planning to open in Fort Qu’Appelle, Sask., with the aim of allowing people to remove themselves from the struggles of everyday life and ground themselves.
Before the mental health facility opens its doors, there will be three phases to its programming. Phase 1 will begin with online treatment, which aims to help those who seek remote guidance, followed by referrals to the facility and ending with the facility opening in late summer.
