Important Considerations Before Completing Our Intake Form

If this is an emergency, please call 911 or visit your nearest emergency department.

Winter Break Notice

Please note that our Centre will be closed for our annual winter break from December 23rd to January 3rd. Our last operational day will be December 20th, and we will reopen on January 6th. This break allows our team time for self-care and rejuvenation, ensuring we return in January with renewed focus to continue offering the support you deserve.

​

We encourage you to use this time for personal reflection and self-nurturing. Practice the coping strategies you’ve learned and engage with your support systems. This pause is a reminder for all of us to care for ourselves as we prepare for the year ahead.

​

One-to-one support services will resume the week of January 6th, and support groups will restart the week of January 13th. Registration for the week of January 13th's groups will open on the 13th at 9:00am and close at 4:00pm the same day as the group you are interested in registering for (for those eligible to register). For registration and eligibility details, please visit our FAQ page.

​

Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to connecting with you in the new year, refreshed and ready to support you.​ If you need immediate assistance during this break, please click here for phone support options.
