SERVICES PROVIDED
- Clients work with staff to determine what they want from the program, and how staff can support them. We support and encourage individuals to improve their quality of life through interaction with each other and with the larger community. This often includes building on social skills, leadership skills, symptom management, cultural skills, and managing a healthy lifestyle.
WHERE AND WHEN TO MEET
The Bridge Centre meets three times a week at 125 Skinner Street on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 9:30am-2:30pm. We can assist in arranging transportation through HandyDART, or in helping to plan a bus trip. Participants are supported to make their own travel plans.
At the beginning of each month clients and staff work together to a make monthly calendar of activities. Types of activities include physical fitness, creative activities, social opportunities, relaxation practices, and skill development. Program participants who stay over the lunch hour are encouraged to bring their own lunch and eat with the other participants.
