We offer programs and services designed to help people develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence to create positive change in their lives. Our staff – including experienced counsellors and support workers – operates from an evidence-based, trauma-informed lens to meet people where they are and get them where they want to be.

More About Us

CARING NEIGHBOURS


This holiday season, you can give the gift of brighter tomorrows. Our goal is to raise $250,000 to fund our programs in 2025. Your support today means we can support one more unhoused youth, one more family in crisis, and one more survivor of violence.
