The drop-in is a safe place, a place to call home, for street-involved and homeless youth, ages 16-24. Like any home, the centre offers daily meals, showers, laundry facilities, and access to other basics like clothing and socks to the youth who come through our door. Along with these basic needs, youth find a place were they are valued, respected and encouraged to thrive. We walk alongside youth, building relationships and helping them access vital services in the community, such as legal advice, health care, addiction services, mental health support, education, employment, and housing options.
