Thunderwing Program
Thunderwing is a community mobilization program that works with folks facing barriers with the organizations or systems they are involved with. Our goal is to coordinate and mobilize existing resources across sectors to give clients the support they need so they can prevent and permanently stabilize crisis situations.
We do this with the support of the Thunderwing Hub and Thunderwing Support Teams.
The Hub is a committee of government and community agencies that use their knowledge and connections to build a plan to support clients in reaching their goals. Made up from multi-sector service providers, Thunderwing Support Teams are unique to each client. Support teams meet regularly to create and implement a coordinated action plan to achieve client’s goals.
