Outreach Program

The Outreach Program provides follow-up services to the Centre’s residents for one year following their move-out from the shelter.

Through telephone consultations and drop-in appointments, this program forms links for former residents with educational institutions for their children; ESL for parents and children; sources of income; employment and professional re-qualification processes; legal advice and support and mental health services.

Outreach program was launched to provide seamless support to families as they begin their process of adapting into a local community.
