Emergency Shelters, Gender-Based Violence Shelters, and Drop-In Centres

Emergency shelters provide temporary residence and supports for adults experiencing homelessness.

Gender-based violence shelters provide temporary residence and supports for people escaping gender-based violence or abuse. Services may include counselling, community referrals, safety planning, and emergency transportation.

Drop-in centres provide immediate services to people facings barriers to accessing basic needs and support, such as food, clothing, showers, laundry and bus fun. These centres also offer peer support, support groups, social activities, and sometimes longer-term services such as case management.
