New programs
Effective September 1st 2024 we have closed our mental health resource centre and halted all programs due to lack of funding. We are making adjustments to implement free mental health programming that is less frequent than operating daily. New program in development: Mental health talk and trade. Participants discuss mental health related challenges while having access to a sharing table of basic needs and community resources.
