In this quick read, we break down the 5 simple pieces of content to have in place first:

- A clear, client-focused homepage

- A services page that explains outcomes (not just a list)

- An FAQ that removes doubt

New Local Spotlight: KOLA (Okanagan)

We just published a new BoostBC Local Spotlight featuring KOLA — a learning community built around presence, consistency, and real support for families.

KOLA started as a personal curriculum created by a mother for her daughter and has grown into an intentional, relationship-driven program that supports children and youth who may not thrive in conventional school environments. If you’re a parent, educator, or support professional (or you know someone who is), this is a story worth reading and sharing.
