Together we can build a better tomorrow
Our story
what we do
Services we provide
We currently provide two programs to meet the varied and complex needs of families and individuals facing hardship in our local area. Through COACH we provide one-to-one mentoring that supports individuals over a 12-month period through ‘friendship with purpose’. Through StreetWorks we provide free community meals as well as a safe and non-judgmental drop-in space at The Lounge.
