The new community navigator, Randel Erbacker, was born and raised in Vernon, and has over 12 years of experience working in the non-profit sector and a wealth of knowledge in community supports, is committed to seeing successful outcomes.

“One of the most important things you can do on this earth is to let people know they are not alone.” (Shannon L. Alder).

“This is a quote that resonates deeply with Mr. Erbacker, who finds it very rewarding to facilitate life change in our community, connect people to supports they may not be aware of, and assist people to access services when they need a helping hand,” stated Johnson.

The CONNECT Community Navigator will direct people to local resources and services, as well as support them through application processes and intakes so they are connecting to the resources they need.

“This program works so well with our existing Seniors Services Program which provides the same connection to resources, just for folks over 60”, said Judy Katalinic, Coordinator for Better at Home and Seniors Services at NexusBC.
