Town hosting Conversations with the Community Outreach Worker event on October 17

The Town of St. Marys is excited to announce another, ‘Conversations with the Community Outreach Worker’. This event offers details and a chance for residents to ask questions about available community support resources. 

Taking place on Saturday, October 17, 2026, attendees are welcome to drop-in from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (noon) at Snapping Turtle Coffee Roasters (145 Queen St. E). Anyone is welcome to attend. 

Attendees will have the chance to meet and chat with the Town’s Community Outreach Worker, Jade Orquin, who earned her Undergrad in Sociology and Political Science and her Masters in Political Science with a focus on policy development and analysis. 

This event is part of the Town's ongoing efforts to enhance community engagement and ensure that residents are well-informed about the support systems that are available and how they can be accessed. Topics include the role of the Community Outreach Worker, connections to life stability services, financial aid, and other social services. 

“This is a great chance to connect people with the services and supports available in our community,” says Jade Orquin, Community Outreach Worker. “Whether you're looking for information for yourself or a loved one, we’re here to answer questions and help people find the resources they need.”
