Our Team

At BHF, we’re more than just a team; we’re a community of caring people working together to support healing and growth every day.

Our staff come from all walks of life and bring their own unique experiences, skills, and heart to the work we do. From directors and keyworkers to outreach workers, teachers, nurses, clinical therapists, program support workers, and cultural support workers, everyone plays a vital role in helping individuals on their recovery journey.

We’re also grateful for the behind-the-scenes support of our kitchen, maintenance, and admin teams; because it takes all of us to create a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment.

At BHF, we believe in people; and our team is here to walk alongside them every step of the way.
