Town hosting Conversations with the Community Outreach Worker event on April 12

Event planned for 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Snapping Turtle Coffee Roasters

The Town of St. Marys is hosting a Conversations with the Community Outreach Worker event to provide information and an opportunity to ask questions about the resources that are in place to support the community.

The event will take place on Saturday, April 12, 2025, at Snapping Turtle Coffee Roasters (145 Queen St. E). This drop-in event will run from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (noon) and is open to everyone.

Attendees will have the chance to engage with the Community Outreach Worker, Jade Orquin, who earned her Undergrad in Sociology and Political Science and her Masters in Political Science with a focus on policy development and analysis.

This event is part of the town's ongoing efforts to enhance community engagement and ensure that residents are well-informed about the support systems that are available and how they can be accessed. Topics include the role of the Community Outreach Worker, connections to life stability services, financial aid, and other social services.

Participants are invited to enjoy a complimentary hot beverage, courtesy of the Town.

"This is an excellent opportunity for residents to learn about the various support systems in place and how resources can be accessed,” says Jade Orquin, Community Outreach Worker. “We hope to answer questions and provide valuable information to those who need it.”
