Ribbon-cutting celebrates the re-opening of the society’s Sudbury office following a 2021 fire that heavily damaged the heritage building
It was May 11, 2021 at 5 a.m. when Cory Roslyn received a call from the alarm company. As executive director of the Elizabeth Fry Society of Northeastern Ontario, Roslyn was the first to hear that the beloved home of the society, 204 Elm Street, was in flames.
It was a long road, moving from their beloved home into various temporary facilities with the help of other community organizations like the Centre de santé communautaire du Grand Sudbury and also, travelling up and down the road, making sure people could find them as so many of their clients were used to walking to their location, just across the road from the Sudbury Jail.
“there were moments over the past 18 months where I wasn't exactly sure where we were going to end up, particularly in the beginning,” she said. “But in reflecting on it now, it almost seems like it's gone by in a minute, and now, we're looking at a way forward, the impact we want to have on the community and what the community really needs from us.”
If you would like to support the society, they are looking for donations both financial and of clothing and hygiene products, as well as volunteers.
