SESS has received a Stop Order for September 30. Our Residents need to find rentals within 4 weeks. They all live well below the poverty line, and do not have an opportunity to save for the expenses of a move. Please consider a donation to help 24 folks find and pay for new homes!
This is a very challenging time for all of us at SESS - please do not respond with any negative comments.

It is with heavy hearts and disappointment that we announce the closure of the Eagle’s Nest Mini-Village Transitional Housing program.
On Tuesday, August 18, the Mayor and 3 councillors voted unanimously to oppose the SESS zoning applications submitted to resolve the non-compliance complications at our current location.
The Town of Whitecourt then gave us a 6-week Stop Order to vacate the premises by September 30. 6 weeks is obviously an inadequate time to find homes for our current 24 residents who have multiple challenges. We will be seeking help from our amazing community supporters.
Please encourage our residents and outreach clients when you interact with them. Some feel despair and need fresh hope.
Soaring Eagle is committed to supporting these vulnerable folks and will continue to provide supports to assist them through this difficult process to find new homes and face a new season in their lives.

Sometimes it’s the small details that are so important …. Thanks to E360 Environmental for the portable toilets and to Jeremy at Flynn Group of Companies for the dump bin. Both absolutely necessary for a successful race event.
