ANNUAL REPORT

VIBRANT HEALTHCARE ALLIANCE

2023/24

Year in Review

This Year, Vibrant recognizes another successful year of providing community services encompassing wellness programs, healthcare, and attendant care services. As we reflect on this past year, we have seen encouraging progress toward our goal of meaningful engagement. We remain committed to providing holistic health and community services that ensure independence and well-being for individuals facing barriers to care.

Over the past year, with input from our community, we have updated our Mission, Vision, and Values to better reflect who we are today. We continue to learn from our experiences and seek solutions to meet the changing needs of those we serve.

2023-24 was a financially challenging year as we incurred extraordinary building maintenance costs at our Yonge Street Community Health Centre site, and had higher costs of providing attendant care services for Supportive Housing. This is reflected in the summarized Statement of Operations on page XX. The excess of expense over revenue was funded using balance sheet reserves held for such purposes, and Vibrant remains financially healthy.

As we recognize the lives we've touched and the partnerships we've built along the way, we remain dedicated to maintaining the continuity of our services, including programs, workshops, and support systems, that have become vital resources for those we serve. By ensuring that these essential services remain accessible and impactful, we will continue to empower individuals and strengthen our community.

All this would not have been possible without the unwavering dedication of our staff, engaged community, and volunteers who continue to go above and beyond to make a real difference in our community.

You can read more about our impact in the pages of this report as we look forward to the year ahead, we are excited about the opportunities to grow and further our impact.

Laura Mattila, Board Chair

Since 2017, Vibrant Healthcare Alliance has carried forward the legacy of community support to serve individuals facing barriers in care. As we move forward, we remain committed to helping clients navigate these challenges with the support they need.

This year, with valuable input from community members and staff, we updated our Mission, Vision, and Values to more clearly reflect Vibrant's role in society. These guiding principles form the foundation of our work and ensure we stay aligned with our purpose and goals as we serve the community.
