New Hope Drop-In
The drop-in provides a welcoming place for men and women who are homeless or marginally housed in the Parkdale community. The goal of the New Hope Drop-In is to provide a safe and friendly environment where socially isolated members of the community can meet, socialize and access needed supports.
In partnership with the Parkdale Community Health Centre, we offer a range of health care supports, workshops, social activities and light meals.
