Sheldon Kennedy Centre of Excellence
The new model for healing, recovery, and prevention
Changing how Society Responds to Child Abuse
The newly named Sheldon Kennedy Centre of Excellence is the new model for healing, recovery, and prevention, located on the main campus of Red Deer Polytechnic in Red Deer, Alberta.
By bringing strategic partners together under one roof, and providing the personalized, treatment-focused space that they need, we are able to better respond to the challenges presented by mental health concerns, child abuse, child sexual exploitation, and other child and youth related traumas.
You can help build the Centre of Excellence #BrickbyBrick and have a chance at prizes and discounts at participating locations all month long. Click here to learn more!
The Partners
Each strategic partner brings something vital to the table. Under the Children First Act, each partner is able to come together and triage a child as a team, creating a complete picture of trauma and centering a shared roadmap for response.
