Outreach Program
The purpose of the Outreach Program is to provide follow up to clients who have accessed Residential services, and provide supports to individuals in the community that wish to be a part of the program. This program provides education, referrals, emotional support, transportation and advocacy to assist clients in creating goals that will help them get to a state of well-being within their lives. To refer yourself or a client, contact us directly and ask for the Outreach Intake worker during business hours (Monday – Friday 8:30 – 4:30 pm.). Outreach workers can deliver presentations to the community that focus on healthy relationships, family violence prevention and dating violence prevention.
