Food and Clothing Rooms
Community members can connect with us to book appointments to access our Food and Clothing Rooms, providing support for those who find themselves in an emergency.
Located at our Forest Lawn and Ranchlands office locations, we can provide access to food, clothing, baby essentials, and hygiene items for those in need.
Our Food and Clothing Rooms are stocked through donations, and partnerships with organizations such as the Calgary Food Bank and Spinz-A-Round.

Resource Discussions
There are many great organizations in Calgary that are doing amazing work to support people in need, but it can be difficult and confusing to navigate these services when you're in a crisis.
Our Community Advocates can recommend and connect people to agencies that offer a wide range of programs and services, such as housing and shelter resources, food resources, mental and physical health resources, and much more.
Advocacy
Sometimes all you need is a helping hand to get you started. From navigating benefits processes, to working out payment plans with utility providers, our Community Advocates are here to assist and guide you.
We believe that empowered and resilient communities start with community members that have the skills required to advocate for themselves and their needs, and we're here to help you learn those skills.
