Social Drop-In Program
MHA’s Drop-In program provide a stigma-free space for people who have experienced or who are living with mental health issues to connect, socialize and learn new tools and skills. Our space is a safe, restorative, welcoming environment where guests can participate in an activity, receive help navigating community services and resources, sit quietly, enjoy a snack or build friendships. This program is a “peer-support” program, staffed by individuals with their own lived mental health experiences. Check out our calendar for drop-in hours.
