At Simaril, it’s often the small everyday things that make a difference.

Christian and Avanthi have been busy planting flowers and adding some greenery around our homes for the summer.

A lot of time, work, and care went into this, and it really shows. The homes look brighter, more welcoming, and full of life.

Thank you both for the pride and care you continue to bring into our homes and communities.

A Day in Simaril

Meet Kris Carino, House Leader at Blenheim.

A typical day in Kris’s role involves balancing direct support, advocacy, and the day-to-day coordination needed to make the house run smoothly.

Her day often starts by catching up on correspondence and making KR her tea and snack. After program, the evening might include medications, errands, appointments, community outings, or a stop at Tim Hortons for hot chocolate and Timbits.

“KR is the boss,” Kris says.

KR has a very playful and mischievous personality, so there is always lots of laughter throughout the evening. She enjoys spending time on her iPad, bouncing on her exercise ball, and keeping staff on their toes with jokes and little pranks.

Kris shared that one thing people may not realize about this role is how much relationship-building is involved in the work.

“It’s the small everyday moments, consistency, and trust that make the biggest difference in a person’s life.”

For Kris, this work is a constant reminder of how important laughter, patience, and human connection are in everyday life 💙

A new group home in Niverville is raising questions, and it’s an important conversation to have.

People care about their neighbourhoods. They want to understand what changes mean, who will be living there, and how it will fit into the community.

The truth is, homes like this are just that… homes. Usually small, with a few residents and consistent support, designed to help people live safely, independently, and as part of the community.

These conversations matter. The more we talk about them openly, the more understanding we build.

The Town of Niverville will be getting its first group home after council approved the application during a council meeting last Tuesday. Simaril, a Winnipeg non-profit that houses people with physica...
