The mandate of the non-profit organization Just Beginning Flowers is
To operate as a social enterprise
To train men and women with significant barriers to employment and those making transition to the labour market
To provide a job placement program
To assist participants to find employment
Just Beginnings Flowers is proud to be part of the Phoenix Society. We are located in the Phoenix Society's new building, the Phoenix Centre
The Phoenix Centre signifies new hope for individuals recovering from alcohol and drug misuse. They have taken a leadership role on behalf of those in our community who have not responded well to traditional rehabilitation or education. At the Phoenix Centre, they successfully use a holistic approach to recovery from alcohol and other drug abuse.
